Web-based 3D processing and dissemination of multibeam sonar data

Abstract

The continuous detailed surveys of the various water bodies over time produce a large and ever-increasing volume and density of underwater sounding data. Three-dimensional data, such as those obtained by multibeam sonar systems, are quite complex to manage, and thus their growing numbers increase the pressure on development of new solutions dedicated to processing them. This paper presents a concept system for web-based dissemination of multibeam data in a geographic context. In order to maintain an easily accessible user interface, processing and distribution of such datasets in a web environment requires the data to be converted into a file format which is fit for processing via a web browser. Because of this, the presented system uses the emerging 3D Tiles open standard for serving multibeam point clouds alongside reconstructed three-dimensional models of shipwrecks to remote users in a web environment by means of Cesium, an open source Web-GIS library for 3D visualization of geospatial data.
