In 2025, Aqua Survey, Inc. joined archaeologists from the Lao National Museum to locate a colossal bronze Buddha believed to have disappeared beneath the Mekong centuries ago. While the statue remains hidden, the team’s efforts uncovered a sandstone stela identifying the long-lost temple that once stood on a river island between Laos and Thailand.

My wife has accused me of collecting interesting friends as a hobby. I plead guilty as charged. In 2000, I was tasked to find a keynote speaker for the Hudson Delaware Regional Chapter of SETAC (The Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry) annual meeting. I decided to invite longtime Princeton resident, Stan Waterman to speak. I gave him a call. He immediately said yes, with one caveat, he wanted me to come over to his home and have lunch with
https://vimeo.com/267824686 The shoreline’s shifting interface has long defied traditional survey methods. One of Aqua Survey’s specialties is creating engineering-quality 3D models of this transitional zone by merging two high-density data collection methods. Aqua Survey solves this challenge by combining water-side multibeam sonar with above-water photogrammetric techniques to build precise, engineering-grade 3D models of the transitional zone of your site. See how Aqua Survey turns the toughest land-water surveys into a desktop-ready reality model. Watch multibeam bathymetry merge with high-resolution photogrammetric

https://vimeo.com/732542352/d809a39883 We’re excited to introduce the newest additions to our fleet: The Manasquan, The Sandusky, and The Packanack — three purpose-built vibracoring vessels designed to expand Aqua Survey’s capabilities in sediment sampling. Built for performance, safety, and precision, these vessels are engineered to tackle challenging field conditions while delivering high-quality core samples for environmental assessments, remediation planning, and regulatory compliance. Whether we’re working along the coast, in rivers, or on inland waterways, these vessels allow us to serve our clients
Aqua Survey is excited to reveal that we have officially added three new sediment sampling vessels to our fleet. Each one was designed by a marine architect to vibracore efficiently and be robust enough to handle the rigors of electro vibracoring. Introducing: The Manasquan, The Sandusky, and The Packanack. The Manasquan was recently deployed on its inaugural job; collecting vibracore samples along the Schuylkill River. Watch our reveal video below. https://www.aquasurvey.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Aqua-Surveys-New-Fleet.mp4 If you need sampling or survey assistance on your
Native American Princess turned Wealthy Puritan It probably can be said for most that lived in the 1600’s, but for sure, Jane Sandusky did not live an easy life. A Native-American believed by the Hayes family to be of Sandusky heritage, Jane was born near modern-day York, Maine in about the year 1622. Sometime before 1646, she married a Puritan named Stephen Flanders. At the time, when a white settler married a native it was common to claim that the
Mission Success – ASI / Geonics collaboration results in safer future for Lao children Another UXO clearance mission was just successfully completed with a Geonics EM61-LX2 and the ASI Pointer in Khammouan Province, Laos along a proposed transmission line. Laos is per-capita, the most heavily bombed country in the world. They’d like to become “the battery” of Southeast Asia via hydroelectric dams. In a mountainous, monsoonal, sparsely populated country with (electric) power-hungry neighbors, it is an obvious direction for the Lao
Aqua Survey is expanding its fleet of dedicated sediment vibracoring vessels from 6 to 9. Currently under construction are three, 24-foot long, pontoon vessels. All three are scheduled to come online in early 2022. The vessels have been engineered specifically to collect sediment electro-vibracores inshore and to easily be trailered to your near or distant work site. Coupled with Aqua Survey’s eleven electro-vibarcore systems, they are capable of handling several major sediment sampling projects simultaneously. As each new vessel comes
1865 Crime Scene Meets 21st Century Technology One can imagine what 156 years of gossip, folklore and hearsay can do to the veracity of facts, especially when those facts concern what some called the “Great Heist of the 19th Century”. Aqua Survey was brought in by Civil War historian and author, Bob Young (pictured bottom right). Delving deep into the century and a half long mystery, Mr. Young sifted through historical documents, compiling a wealth of firsthand accounts. He believes
“About twelve o’clock the tramp of cavalry was heard coming down upon our train at full speed, and in ten seconds after the alarm was given, they were upon us … with pistols and carbines in almost immediate contact with our persons, demanded the instantaneous surrender of our party and train upon pain of death.” -Banker recounts moment of ambush The Confederacy was falling. The loss of its capitol, Richmond, Virginia was inevitable. The gold and silver of the Confederate
Seamless Land and Water Surveys The area between land and water is one that has been difficult to survey with traditional methods. One of Aqua Survey’s specialties is creating engineering-quality 3D models of this transitional zone through the application of recent technological advancements. Seawalls, headwalls, wharfs, piers, bulkheads, sheet pile, utilities and other waterside structures are often difficult to measure and assess. Urban waterways present unique challenges to engineers due, to the density and complexity of objects near the waterline.
