Abstract
Despite many years of the development of methodology for sensing the seafloor by means of underwater acoustics, the currently used techniques are still not mature enough and not ready to be utilised in numerous different (i.e. with respect to a water region character, used equipment type etc.) tasks. Therefore the hydroacoustic methods, both utilising vertical observations (e.g. by singlebeam echosounders), as well as those relying on wide-angle sensing (by sidescan sonars and multibeam sonars), are still the subject of extensive research. In this paper, after a short review on underwater acoustic equipment and methodology used nowadays in seafloor characterisation, the concept and the results of a combined method of multibeam sonar data processing for seabed classification are presented.
