SG-ASAM-14

Omnidirectional sonars (herein sonars) are capable of providing an alternative view of Antarctic krill distribution, and potentially abundance. Data from sonars can be used independently of conventional downward-looking echosounders or as an additional information source as a compliment to existing acoustic surveys. Sonars are capable of sampling large volumes of water and can image entire Read More

The coordinated collection of acoustic data from the krill fishing fleet will potentially lead to large amounts of stored raw data of variable quality, which need to be scrutinised and processed in order to provide useful information. Different software packages are available to accomodate this. This document provides some background for evaluating the capacity of the software suite Large Read More
