Obtaining an overview of the spatial and temporal distribution of seabed sediments is of high interest for multiple research disciplines. Multibeam echosounders allow for the mapping of seabed ...

For faster and more accurate acquisition of the spatial incidence angle of multibeam echosounders (MBESs), a better algorithm called “Cross” is proposed in this article, where the spatial incidence ...
