This compact handheld CTD is the first of its kind. With three taps of a magnetic stylus pen, simply drop the CastAway CTD in the water, pull it up, and have conductivity, temperature, and depth measured in minutes. An attractive LCD screen provides easy access for setup, deployment, and immediate data review.
Integrated GPS virtually eliminates the need for field notes. The beginning and end of every cast is logged to the internal recorder with position and time. The included GIS software automatically downloads data from each of your CastAways via BlueTooth to show the location of each cast on an interactive map. Analysis, plotting, editing, and exporting of data are quick and intuitive tasks.
And as part of this special new product launch, the YSI booth (G240) at Oceanology International will feature a tank whereby attendees can actually experiment casting (dropping) the product into the water and reading data collected by the CastAway.
