Description
Summary:The objectives of this work were to devise processing techniques for acoustic measurements made with bathymetric sidescan sonar systems and to apply them to data collected with the SeaMARC II system. The main goals were to provide end-users with co-registered acoustic imagery and bathymetry displayed in a geographic reference frame with a minimum of artifacts and with improved contrast or feature definition, while retaining as much as possible the relative acoustic backscatter contrast due to the geology of the area.
