  • Page 17: Sonar Angle

    Sonar Angle To achieve optimal performance while imaging targets and/or the bottom at a given depth, the angle that the sonar is tilted down from the surface is important. This issue is demonstrated in the figures below. On the left, the sonar is tilted down at a steep angle that provides only a narrow field of view of the bottom. The sonar on the right-hand figure is set at a much shallower angle that provides both a better perspective on targets and a larger field-of-view of the bottom.
