1. Multi-Resolution Inference of Bathymetry From Sidescan Sonar
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : How to obtain complete and high-resolution bathymetry is an important research topic in the underwater domain. However, existing methods have certain shortcomings. Multibeam echosounder (MBES) can produce narrow beam range readings of the seafloor, but there is an interval between every two beams (between 10cm to 10m), and the resolution is low. READ MORE

2. Modeling for survey priority and extended CATZOC classifications of Swedish territorial waters in the Baltic Sea
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : Hydrographic measurements and producing of sea charts are a vital part of safe navigations for vessels and ships. A request by the SMA in Norrkoping was made to extend CATZOC classifications in Swedish territorial waters by creating a model which could predict how fast the bathymetry would change at different locations.

3. How fast does the bathymetry change on the Swedish west coast? Modeling how fast the bathymetry change, to know where to prioritize new hydrographic surveys
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The Swedish Maritime Administration is responsible for the passability and availability of vessels on the Swedish coast. They are doing hydrographical surveys to ensure the safety of the maritime transportation corridors on the coast. READ MORE

4. Combining Sidescan Sonar and Multibeam Echo Sounder to Improve Bathymetric Resolution per Ping
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The master thesis degree project is carried out in the area of robotics, particularly in the area of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) and seafloor mapping. The goal of this degree project is to investigate if sidescan sonar data can be used to increase the bathymetric resolution. READ MORE

5. Analytic comparison of multibeam echo soundings
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : This study makes a numeric and visual comparison of two different multibeam echo sounding (MBES) surveys performed at the exact same location, in an effort to establish how reliable and comparable the vertical depth measurements are. The horizontal position uncertainty is not issued in this study. READ MORE
