Abstract:Seabed sediment classification is meaningful for seafloor habitat mapping and marine resources exploration. Multibeam Echo-sounding System can acquire backscatter and topographic information, which has become the mainstream for detecting seabed sediment. Because topographic features are closely correlated with sediment distribution, and sediment types tend to be distributed in a continuous pattern, we propose a seabed sediment classification based on topographybased image partitioning. Multi-resolution segment… Show more
