Combining the power of SonTek's ADV technology with the proven PUV wave method, the Triton-ADV is the most value-packed system available for the measurement of currents, directional waves, and tides. In one package, you get the high-accuracy velocity data (with AutoVelocity) for which SonTek is known, coupled with integrated pressure, temperature, and compass/tilt sensors in a ready-to-deploy system. SonTek's ViewTritonPro software makes processing and analyzing your data a breeze!
