Automatic bathymetry retrieval from SAR images

Abstract: Bathymetry, the topography of the sea floor, is in high demand due to the increase in offshore constructions like wind parks. It is also an important dataset for climate change modelling, when sea level rises and changes in circulation currents are to be simulated. The retrieval of accurate bathymetry data is a cost-intensive task usually requiring a survey vessel charting the respective area. However, bathymetry can also be retrieved remotely using data from Earth observation satellites. The main point of thi… Show more

“…There are three steps to study the bottom topography using SAR imaging systems: (1) finding the connection between the OSC and underwater topographic features; (2) accurate hydrodynamic modulation of the ocean surface variations through the OSC; and (3) creating a relationship between the microwave signal and the sea surface [246]. In [247], the gridded bathymetry information was automatically derived from SAR data. They used sea state alterations in TerraSAR-X images to extract the bathymetry in shelf areas through the shoaling effect.…”

“…Nearshore bathymetry can also be derived with this method from SAR sensors (Bian et al, 2020), such as Sentinel-1 (Sancho et al, 2018;Wiehle and Pleskachevsky, 2018), RISAT-1 (Mishra et al, 2014) or TerraSAR-X/Tandem-X (Wiehle et al, 2019) satellites, even in areas covered by clouds.…”

“…In other words, these techniques are based on the interference between the electromagnetic microwaves signal coming from the satellite with the sea surface roughness that is influenced by the seabed morphology (Cloarec et al, 2016). The obtainable depths range from -10 m to -70 m, therefore the first meters (> -10 m) cannot be achieved due to effects such as wave breaking and coastal waves reflection (Wiehle et al, 2019). This is a huge limitation for shallow water derivation also accompanied by a low geometric resolution in case of free data which can go up to 100 m (Duplančić Leder et al, 2023).…”
