DIDSON- Dual Frequency Identification Sonar. 

The next step in fisheries acoustics, provides real-time video-like images of fish and habitat. This technology utilizes acoustic lenses and allows for imaging in highly-turbid waters, characteristic of coastal Louisiana and much of the northern Gulf of Mexico. Click the link below to view samples of DIDSON data collected in coastal Louisiana.  You may also click the link below to view an article in a 2005  SC & E newsletter (page 9) on the DIDSON technology.
