Underwater sound mapping is increasingly being used as a tool for monitoring and managing noise pollution from shipping in the marine environment. Sound maps typically rely on tracking data from the Automated Information System (AIS), but information ava...

Marine conservation and management require detailed and accurate habitat mapping, which is usually produced by collecting data using remote sensing methods. In recent years, unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are used for marine data acquisition, as they prov...

The anthropogenic impact in the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is high due to the presence of manifold industries (e.g., wind farms, shipping, and fishery). Therefore, it is of great importance to evaluate the different impacts of such industries, ...

In this study, we present a framework for seagrass habitat mapping in shallow (5?50 m) and very shallow water (0?5 m) by combining acoustic, optical data and Object-based Image classification. The combination of satellite multispectral images-acquired fr...

In 2017, the New South Wales (NSW) Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) initiated a state-wide mapping program, SeaBed NSW, which systematically acquires high-resolution (2?5 m cell size) multibeam echosounder (MBES) and marine LiDAR data along more ...

Quantitative acoustic marine habitat mapping needs to consider the impact of macrobenthic organisms on backscatter data. However, the sensitivity of hydroacoustic systems to epibenthic life is poorly constrained. This study explores the impact of a benth...
