These “side bea[...]

What’s on the Side Imaging Displa y Side Imaging displays a number of easily recognizable f eatures that allow f or accurate interpretation of bottom contour and structur e. For Side Imaging, the bottom composition determines the intensity of the sonar return. For example, r ock and grav el provide a clear er sonar return than mud and sand becaus[...]

Side Imaging T echnology: Ho w it works Side Imaging sonar uses two very pr ecise sonar beams that are directed to either side of the boat and “illuminate” the bottom contour , structure, and fish, and display results in a “pictur e-like” image. • Side beams are extremely narr ow from front to back, and pr ovide “thin slices” of the b[...]

Boat navigation: It is important to understand that when the boat turns, successive beam strips to one side will begin to ov erlap and the strips on the other side will fan out, pro viding some distortion to the image. Because of this, the best imaging performance is produced b y straight line navigation and minimal side-to-side boat motion (i.e. w[...]
