There are some important advantages of non-linear echo sounders compared to linear ones when obtaining sub-bottom information with high resolution. This article discusses some parameters of non-linear echo sounders for high-resolution sub-bottom profiling in general, as well as Innomar Technologie's parametric sub-bottom profiler systems SES-96 and SES-2000. The abovementioned systems provide not only exact water depth determination, but they also give detailed information about sediment layers and sub-bottom structures with very high resolution. Some survey examples from shallow-water areas and greater water depths will be given to illustrate the performance of these echo sounders.
