  • Responsiveness and performance improvements: use Echoview while calculations are in progress, cancel exports, and calculate faster.
  • Better results from the multibeam school detection algorithm when pings intersect.
  • Mouse pointer duplication across visible echogram, graph, and cruise track windows, making it easy to inspect and cross-reference your data.

    • Nortek Signature narrowband echosounder data
