Over the years Tierra Data scientists have performed hundreds of marine investigations, spanning the breadth of coastal survey types. Our project experience in California includes all of the Channel Islands, and extends from Humboldt County to San Diego Bay.
We helped pioneer the implementation of single beam sonar techniques for the high resolution mapping of underwater habitat and vegetation for in-water projects, including the impact analysis of pipelines and cables in marine subtidal communities to achieve site specific permit requirements.
Tierra Data is an organizational member of the American Academy of Underwater Sciences and maintains an accredited scientific diving program, various research vessels, sonars, and mapping equipment that facilitate a broad range of technical applications.
