This page summarizes the new features, improvements and other changes that have been implemented in Echoview 4.00 which specifically affect the use of data from Kongsberg echosounders.

Support for Kongsberg EM 710 files

Echoview introduces support for Kongsberg EM 710 files. Add EM 710 data files, then visualize and manipulate Sv, unspecified dB, position and heading data.

Correction to range calculation for EM 3002 data files (.all)

An incorrect algorithm for range calculations in EM 3002 data files was used in Echoview 3.50. Ranges were too large, by a factor of 2. This will affect the TVG and hence the Sv values calculated from this data.

Corrections have been made to Echoview 4.00 and the help documentation.
