— This work addresses the task of designing the optimal survey route that an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) should take in mine countermeasures (MCM) operations. It is assum...
In this paper we present a methodology for high resolution acoustic bathymetric mapping from a robotic underwater vehicle. Based on data obtained from navigation, attitude, and ba...
