DELPH Suite version 2.9
IXSEA is pleased to annouce a new release of DELPH Software Suite.
IXSEA introduces a new version of the DELPH geophysical software suite. This major 2.9 release introduces a number of new tools and functions to simplify survey acquisition operations and boost side-scan sonar, seismic or sub-bottom profiler and magnetic data processing and analysis.
Whilst being already the most productive data processing solution, DELPH reaches a new step by offering complete batch processing capabilities: Optimal processing parameters can be defined and used for processing a number of profiles at the same time within minutes, making them ready for QC, interpretation and mapping.
From smaller to major offshore survey companies, DELPH smart workflow makes the life of geophysicists and hydrographs much easier, getting results in shorter times with a higher level in multi-sensor data integration.
Existing customers in the warranty period or having a maintenance agreement will automatically receive this new product version. Other customers are most welcome to contact iXSea to apply for an Extended Maintenance Agreement. EMAs provide users with the latest service packs and major software releases bringing them all the new features, and also include 24/7 priority support with worldwide coverage.

DELPH Suite version 2.8
IXSEA is pleased to annouce a new release of DELPH Software Suite.
All DELPH Sonar, Seismic and Mag products are improved in this 2.8 version,
thanks to the experience of our users in all fields of application.
DELPH RoadMap is the common 3D geographic visualization that is shared between all
DELPH interpretation modules. This powerful real-time and offline 3D geographic display
has been fully upgraded and allows the overlay of all sensor data in a single geo-referenced
display. All survey data and other user layers (bathymetry, charts, structures, etc.) can be
used to improve the interpretation and add value to the reports.
This improved data fusion and all new/improved features, makes this release even more powerful
to massively improve the reporting productivity and quality while working in an efficient and comfortable
software environment, with seamless integration of all data and GIS, charting, and modeling solutions.
