QPS Qimera 2.9.2

QPS Qimera 2.9.2 is a professional multibeam bathymetric data processing and hydrographic analysis software developed by QPS (Quality Positioning Services). It is designed for hydrographic surveyors, offshore contractors, port authorities, and marine mapping professionals to efficiently process, clean, analyze, and visualize sonar and LiDAR datasets.

Built around QPS’s Dynamic Workflow Engine, Qimera automates much of the traditional bathymetric processing workflow while maintaining full user control over advanced editing and quality assurance.

What is QPS Qimera 2.9.2?

Qimera 2.9.2 provides a complete hydrographic processing environment for:

• Multibeam echosounder (MBES) processing
• Single-beam bathymetry
• Point cloud editing
• LiDAR bathymetric processing
• Navigation correction
• Surface generation
• Quality control (QA/QC)
• Backscatter processing (optional)
• Water column processing (optional)

The software integrates seamlessly with Qinsy, Fledermaus, and other QPS products, creating an end-to-end workflow from survey acquisition to final deliverables.

Key Features of QPS Qimera 2.9.2

1. Dynamic Workflow Engine

Qimera automatically tracks processing dependencies and updates results whenever source data or processing parameters change.

Key advantages include:

• Automated processing sequences
• Reduced manual intervention
• Faster project completion
• Improved workflow consistency

This significantly simplifies complex hydrographic processing tasks.

2. Advanced Multibeam Processing

Qimera supports complete multibeam workflows including:

• Ray tracing
• Sound velocity correction
• Navigation editing
• Tide correction
• Motion compensation
• Beam filtering
• Patch Test
• Wobble Analysis

The software is compatible with equipment from major sonar manufacturers used in offshore and coastal surveys.

3. Intelligent Point Cloud Editing

Powerful editing tools include:

• 2D and 3D point cloud editing
• Slice Editor
• Swath Editor
• Surface-based cleaning
• Automated spline filtering
• Dynamic surface updates

These features help users quickly identify and remove outliers while preserving valid bathymetric measurements.

4. High-Speed Surface Generation

Qimera enables rapid creation of:

• Bathymetric grids
• Digital Terrain Models (DTM)
• Digital Elevation Models (DEM)
• Contours
• Surface statistics

Large survey datasets can be processed efficiently using multi-core processing.

5. Qimera Live Processing

Qimera Live provides near real-time processing by:

• Monitoring acquisition folders
• Automatically importing new data
• Updating bathymetric surfaces
• Performing automatic gridding

This reduces turnaround time during offshore and dredging operations.

6. Integrated Visualization

Using Fledermaus technology, Qimera offers:

• High-performance 3D visualization
• Cross-section analysis
• Fly-through animations
• Linked time-series displays
• Feature management

These visualization tools improve interpretation and quality control of survey data.

7. Optional Processing Modules

Qimera supports several optional extensions, including:

• Midwater processing
• Backscatter processing
• TU Delft Sound Speed Inversion
• ENC Plus
• Structure from Motion (SfM) for Bathy
• Automatic Height Matching
• HIPS I/O compatibility
