Rule-based semi-automated tools for mapping seabed morphology from bathymetry data
Seabed morphology maps and data are critical for knowledge-building and best practice management of marine environments. To facilitate objective and repeatable production of these maps, we have developed a number of semi-automated, rule-based GIS tools ...

A regional seabed geomorphological map over part of the southwestern pacific plate
We use the GEBCO global bathymetric product alongside other data sets, including magnetic anomaly and vertical gravity gradient, to interpret the seabed geomorphology of approximately 24.7 million km2 of the southwestern Pacific Plate at an effective ...
