Abstract

Ever-growing attention has been given to the monitoring and inspection of underwater man-made structures for scientific and technical purposes. However, most of the related tasks are still involving the use of scuba divers. In this paper, we propose a data processing pipeline that allows automatic inspection and monitoring of underwater structures using 2.5D and 3D data provided by either acoustic or optical sensors.
