FS Heincke and FS Maya II are research ships of AWI which have a large range of different scientific sonars. Both have multi-beam echo sounders, Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) and other multi frequency echosounders. On behalf of the AWI we support many of those systems which means system maintenance and the education and the support of their users.
On RV FS Heincke we take care of the:

The German research vessel "Polarstern" is an important instrument of the German polar and marine research. The ship has an own data centre, a complex IT infrastructure and hundreds of scientific sensors which were maintained and supervised by seagoing FIELAX personnel throughout the years 2002 to 2013.
The met mast "Amrumbank West" is founded in the German North Sea near the island Amrum, about 90 m of height in a water depth of 23 m. It measures parameters relating wind, weather, wave and water currents. The acquired data is transmitted regularly to shore by short wave radio and by satellite. The power supply consists of batteries, small wind turbines, solar panels and a diesel-engine. Read more
The German Antarctic research station "Neumayer" is built into the Ekström ice shelf in Atka bay (East Antarctica). Several observatories for meteorological, geophysical and air chemical research are operated year round in the close vicinity of the station. The station's computer network is complex, and yet must be though set up to be fail-proof, redundant and easy to maintain. IT-services on "Neumayer", administration of the network and IT consulting for the computer facilities and observatories was provided by FIELAX.
