Recreational boating facilities We understand boating facilities because we use them. We are experienced in all aspects of marina and boat harbour design and maintenance. Our services include demand studies, boat ramps, channel design, dredging, floating pontoons, jetties, breakwaters, wave screens, condition inspections and maintenance strategies. |
Dredging management We are leading experts in both capital and maintenance dredging. Our personnel have hands on experience working on all scales of dredging projects, sand bypassing and reclamations. Our services include survey analysis, siltation rates, channel design, approvals, equipment selection, offshore and land disposal options, sand trap management and sand bypassing. |
Breakwaters We are experienced in the design and evaluation of cost effective protection structures. We have hands on experience designing with a variety of materials including rock and concrete armour units. Our services include breakwater design, wave overtopping analysis, condition inspections, asset management plans, modifications or upgrades. |
Coastal modelling & sediment dynamics We know how to run numerical models and have the practical knowledge to validate and interpret predictions against local conditions. Our services include inundation and erosion estimates, extreme event analysis, sediment and benthic habitat mapping, geomorphological mapping, sediment transport analysis and sediment cells. |
Coastal GIS & coastal mapping We efficiently store, analyse and share coastal monitoring data using Geographical Information System (GIS) databases and can assist you in managing a range of GIS data. We provide high quality contemporary products in all fields of coastal zone mapping based on the integration of aerial photography, remote sensing, satellite, geophysical and ground truth data. |
Coastal hazard & risk management We have an intimate knowledge of climate change predictions and policy requirements. Our services include erosion & inundation mapping, shoreline evolution, climate change adaptation studies, vulnerability assessments, asset adaptive capacity reviews, coastal hazard risk management and adaptation plans (CHRMAPs). |
Coastal zone monitoring We work with you to develop tailored coastal monitoring action plans (CMAPs) with clear objectives. From simple photo monitoring programs to seabed mounted instruments. We are experienced in the collection, analysis and integration of a broad range of data sources including wind, waves, tides, currents, sediments, hydrographic, beach and drone surveys. |
Coastal protection We are experienced in the design and evaluation of cost effective protection measures. We have hands on experience with a variety of structures including conventional seawalls, groynes and more innovative off-shore breakwaters and reefs. We understand the use of rock and were pioneers in the use of geotextile sand bags in Western Australia. We can also assist in the development of effective sand nourishment programs. |
Asset management We are experienced in the condition assessment of marine and coastal structures. We are able to guide you through the prioritisation of repairs, development of maintenance strategies and optimisation of ongoing monitoring. Our services include condition inspections/ratings, fair value cost estimates, GIS database management, strategic asset management (SAM) plans and whole of life cycle costing and optimisation. |
Project management
We are here to help you through every stage of your project, we are experienced in overcoming the unique challenges which come with coastal projects. Our services include scope development, funding applications, contract management, risk mitigations, specifications, site supervision, decision alignment, community consultation and stakeholder relationship management.
