Funded Activity Summary

Automated benthic understanding with multimodal observations. This project aims to deliver cost-effective techniques to explore and monitor marine environments. The project will develop novel methods for classification of large extent, multimodality seafloor surveys consisting of high-resolution visual 3D gigamosaics made of tens of thousands of images coregistered with broad-scale, lower resolution remote sensing data. This knowledge is essential for designing cost-effective, scalable systems to explore, map and monitor Australia's marine environments. At a broader level, the approach and the techniques developed in this project have the potential to have applications in other areas such as terrestrial and intertidal ecology, extending positive impacts beyond benthic environments.
