  • Patent number: 9507052
    Abstract: An automatic recognition method of foot point of continental slope based on topography grid, comprising the steps of cutting a topography grid model through a straight line or a broken line to generate a two-dimensional topography section line, then carrying out first derivation on the two-dimensional topography section to generate a slope section line and a second derivative section line, then obtaining an extreme point of the second derivative section line, using a D-P algorithm to obtain a D-P topography section after second simplification, then carrying out second derivation on the D-P topography section and using a topography and slope judgment method to recognize and eliminate concave hull topography in the D-P section, and finally using judgment methods as slope, water depth, second derivation, concavity and convexity, continuity and segmentation based on the D-P topography, slope and second derivative section to form a recognition method.

  • Patent number: 9361728
    Abstract: The invention discloses a submarine topography construction method based on multi-source water depth data integration, which achieves reasonable splicing of various data such as multi-beam sounding, single-beam sounding, historical topography map and global topography and submarine topography construction. The invention comprises the following steps of: converting a historical submarine topography map into grid data, converting water depths of other sources into grids, using an overlapping and contrasting method to evaluate the accuracy of the water depths of different sources; using a multi-map-layer method to carry out integration, cutting and splicing on multi-source water depth data, constructing an error distribution model to reasonably revise and integrate various-source water depth data; and constructing multi-source water depth submarine topography and grid.

  • Patent number: 9316763
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a submarine topography six-dimensional grid mapping method, and particularly to a method based on known discrete bathymetric data points. According to the present invention, a submarine topography six-dimensional grid mapping method including X-coordinate, Y-coordinate, water depth, slope, second derivative and measuring time is established, a submarine topography three-dimensional grid on the basis of discrete water depth data and measuring time is formed, and then submarine slope and second derivative of each grid point are calculated and the measuring time is superposed simultaneously, thus forming a submarine topography six-dimensional grid technical method. The present invention comprises a plurality of steps: establishing a submarine topography six-dimensional grid structure and a topography dimension grid, establishing a time dimension grid, establishing a slope dimension grid, and establishing a second derivative dimension grid.

  • Publication number: 20150124561
    Abstract: The invention discloses a sound velocity profile (SVP) streamlining and optimization method based on maximum offset of velocity, and provides detailed comprehensive technical process so as to solve the problem that the work efficiency of multi-beam detection and data processing are seriously influenced because the original sound velocity profile has a large data quantity. An MOV method is provided and is used for deleting the redundant points automatically and quickly, and for evaluating the influence of the streamlined sound velocity profile on precision of multi-beam sounding through ray tracing and error analysis. The method has an important actual application value in the aspects of marine surveying and charting, multi-beam surveying, a marine geographic information system, computer graphics, submarine science research and the like, and can be popularized.
