NaviSuite Kuda is EIVA's software bundle for shallow water surveys. It is available in two variants – NaviSuite Kuda Core and NaviSuite Kuda Pro – each of which can be combined with a Processing add-on. See the full product comparison on our website: NaviSuite Kuda product page.

NaviSuite Kuda Core

Dedicated to USV and single-vessel setups. Covers navigation, survey planning and data acquisition with multi-beam echo sounders (incl. backscatter), lasers and cameras.

  • One local display and one remote display
  • Easy-to-use interface bringing all relevant tools to one monitor, including patch test and online cleaning
  • Kuda Core + Processing adds NaviEdit Core and NaviModel Kuda Core (incl. EC-3D and Workflow Manager – Desktop)

NaviSuite Kuda Pro

Dedicated to larger vessels and more complex survey spreads. Covers navigation, survey planning and data acquisition with all relevant hydrographic survey equipment: multi-beam echo sounders (incl. backscatter), lasers, cameras, sidescan sonars and magnetometers.

  • Unlimited local and remote displays
  • Possibility of tracking one subsea object (e.g. ROV or towfish)
  • Kuda Pro + Processing adds NaviEdit and NaviModel Producer (incl. EC-3D and Workflow Manager – Desktop), and also supports sub-bottom profilers for acquisition

Common to both variants

  • Single dongle – everything is on one dongle
  • Some NaviSuite Pro options such as Barge, Catenary and 3D-Pipe are not available, as they are not relevant to Kuda's target use cases
