Method for processing navigation track of side scan sonar tow-fish based on navigation track line file

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for processing navigation track of a side scan sonar tow-fish based on a navigation track line file, which comprises the following steps: firstly, extracting navigation track point coordinate information in the navigation track line file, adopting a Bessel's interpolation model to smoothly process the navigation track point coordinate information, fitting a practical navigation track of a tow-fish, then counting the number of the received scan lines when the tow-fish runs between adjacent navigation track coordinate points according to time information, and finally acquiring instantaneous coordinates when the tow-fish runs through equidistant interpolation. The method makes full use of the navigation track line file, simplifies the navigation track processing process, and effectively solves the problem of uneven scan line distribution due to unstable ship speed and asynchronous scanning and positioning. Simultaneously, the method can acquire good correcting effect on scan line intersection caused by the change of the progression direction of the tow-fish. The method for processing the navigation track of the sonar tow-fish can effectively eliminate various gaps generated during geographic coding of side scan sonar data so as to acquire clear and continuous submarine landform images.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of sonar, in particular to a side-scan sonar towing fish track processing method based on track line files. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of science and technology and the gradual deepening of human understanding of the ocean, the ocean has been paid more and more attention to because of its huge economic potential and strategic importance. Side-scan sonar technology enables people to have more advanced technical means in the process of understanding the ocean and developing marine resources. Side-scan sonar technology combines acoustics, digital signal processing, navigation and positioning, and computer technology. It uses the principle of backscattering of incident acoustic waves by seabed features to detect seabed shapes and intuitively provide acoustic imaging of seabed landforms. Because of its high It is widely used in marine surveying and mapping, marine geological exploration, seab...
