Automated, objective texture segmentation of multibeam echosounder data - Seafloor survey and substrate maps from James Island to Ozette Lake, Washington Outer Coast [PDF]
Without knowledge of basic seafloor characteristics, the ability to address any number of critical marine and/or coastal management issues is diminished. For example, management and conservation of essential fish habitat (EFH), a requirement mandated by

Deep Learning-Based Feature Matching Algorithm for Multi-Beam and Side-Scan Images
Side-scan sonar and multi-beam echo sounder (MBES) are the most widely used underwater surveying tools in marine mapping today. The MBES offers high accuracy in depth measurement but is limited by low imaging resolution due to beam density constraints ...
