Toward adaptive benthic habitat mapping using gaussian process classification
Journal of Field Robotics, 2010AbstractThis paper shows how existing methods of probabilistic least‐squares classification based on Gaussian processes can be used to construct a probabilistic representation of a habitat map using data collected by an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV).

Benthic habitat mapping with acoustic seabed classification
MTS/IEEE Oceans 2001. An Ocean Odyssey. Conference Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.01CH37295), 2002Thematic maps of acoustic diversity resulting from acoustical seabed classification surveys are usually presented as track lines of color-coded classes. These classes can later be calibrated using a bottom sampling system and, perhaps, underwater video or biological sampling.

Mapping marine benthic habitats in Martinique (French West Indies)
Caribbean Journal of Science, 2010Abstract. Several mapping techniques (aerial photography and acoustics) were combined to produce bathymetric and marine benthic habitats maps of Martinique (FWI). The eastern Atlantic coast is characterised by an outer spur and groove reef and inner lagoon system.

Guidance for benthic habitat mapping: an aerial photographic approach
2021This document, Guidance for Benthic Habitat Mapping: An Aerial Photographic Approach, describes proven technology that can be applied in an operational manner by state-level scientists and resource managers. This information is based on the experience gained by NOAA Coastal Services Center staff and state-level cooperators in the production of a series

Benthic habitat mapping by autonomous underwater vehicles
2013This work presents a functional system for performing unsupervised classification and mapping of benthic habitats using an autonomous underwater vehicle. Traditionally, tne-scale underwater mapping has been an expensive process, inaccurate, and is performed infrequently. This work provides contributions in three main areas: the control systems allowing

Using local maps of spatial accuracy for benthic habitat models
2019Spatial predictive models are used extensively in ecological applications as well as in many other domains. Their effectiveness for a given purpose depends on, among other things, a robust assessment of accuracy, particularly classification accuracy, which quantifies the difference between a prediction/classification and its “true” or observed value ...

Mapping deep-water benthic habitats around South Georgia
2004No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.South Georgia lies on a small continental shelf with water depths of a few hundred meters. At the margins of this, the seabed rapidly declines to the ocean floor at depths between 3-4,000 m.
