International Evaluation of Algorithms for Mapping in Optically Shallow Waters. This work provides a means for Australian science and management agencies to apply a method for accurately mapping shallow coastal environments. The work will build Australian research capability by developing new collaborations among experienced researchers; as well as allowing the Australian teams to benchmark their proposed methods internationally. Nationally, the work will strengthen international research exper ....International Evaluation of Algorithms for Mapping in Optically Shallow Waters. This work provides a means for Australian science and management agencies to apply a method for accurately mapping shallow coastal environments. The work will build Australian research capability by developing new collaborations among experienced researchers; as well as allowing the Australian teams to benchmark their proposed methods internationally. Nationally, the work will strengthen international research experience and generate opportunities for postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers to link into leading-edge international research networks. This work will also allow us to build strong ongoing collaborations between research teams in Australia and their counterparts overseas (specifically USA, Canada, UK and Germany). Read moreRead less
Coral Reefs - Innovative Satellite Image Mapping Techniques. Two primary outcomes are expected from this project, the first is aimed at solving a fundamental challenge to understanding and managing coral reefs in Australia and worldwide. The optimal reef mapping method(s) will enable coral reef monitoring and management programs in Australia and internationally to make full use of satellite and airborne image data sets. Secondly, the project will significantly advance the capabilities of remote ....Coral Reefs - Innovative Satellite Image Mapping Techniques.

Summary
Building change detection and map update using multispectral imagery and height data. This project will produce an effective building change detection procedure and a digital building map. Automatic building detection assists in taking possible precautions during natural disasters, whilst automatic building change detection facilitates an effective and efficient management of affected areas during and after the calamity.
Automation of species recognition and size measurement of fish from underwater stereo-video imagery. The project aims to develop algorithms to automate the processing of stereo-video images recorded to count and measure the size of fish. This will improve husbandry and monitoring for finfish aquaculture at reduced costs, create technology export for industry partners, and develop cost effective, non-destructive finfish sampling tools for marine agencies.
