Is the software used in the "seabed UFO" video GIS software? If so, what is it?


The icons almost make it look like the software is ArcReader or an ArcEngine based, but it's hard to tell from the video. I supposed it could not be GIS software at all.


Is anyone familiar with this software?


Here's the video link:

Answer



That is SonarWave Lite by Tekmap. It's free and can be downloaded from the preceding link if you have some SONAR data lying around that you want to play with.


The company who makes it also appears to make heavy use of GRASS and GDAL - so you can consider SonarWave Lite to be GIS-based, but for a very specific application.


EDIT: I looked a bit more into this and found some open-source software for SONAR analysis.


EDIT 2: Here is a link to some free marine SONAR data if you want to play around with it using the above tools.
