17 results about "Depth sounding" patented technology

Depth sounding refers to the act of measuring depth. It is often referred to simply as sounding. Data taken from soundings are used in bathymetry to make maps of the floor of a body of water, and were traditionally shown on nautical charts in fathoms and feet. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the agency responsible for bathymetric data in the United States, still uses fathoms and feet on nautical charts. In other countries, the International System of Units (metres) has become the standard for measuring depth.

When depth measurement is needed, the depth measuring rod in the depth measuring assembly is released, the depth measuring rod rotates around the supporting assembly, the free end of the depth measuring rod enters into the salt mine brine and contacts the bottom of the salt pond.

Method and device for detecting weak signals of spaceborne lidar bathymetry considering terrain continuity

PendingCN122362416ATerrainBathymetry
This invention discloses a method and device for detecting weak signals in spaceborne lidar depth sounding that takes into account terrain continuity. It is used in a two-stage depth photon extraction method based on terrain continuity constraints. After underwater photon extraction, the method reduces density differences along the track through point cloud homogenization and scaling transformation, laying the foundation for subsequent two-stage underwater photon extraction. The first stage uses a globally adaptive density threshold to extract high-reliability underwater terrain photons. In the second stage, weak underwater terrain photons are recovered by propagating terrain continuity constraints from the high-reliability underwater terrain photons, ultimately obtaining a complete depth point cloud data map displaying the seabed topography. This method utilizes terrain continuity as a strong constraint and further improves the density distinction between weak depth signals and noise by using an enhanced density index. It can robustly recover valuable weak signals that traditional methods often miss in complex environments with high-density noise and sparse signals.
