Improved Information Systems for Mine Burial Prediction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using satellite and aerial imagery of Australian waveand storm-prone coastal areas, investigate a variety of image segmentation/classification techniques in GIS and other application environments. During the investigation, establish: (i) the suitability of the techniques for reliable classification of imagery, for instance into sand, rock and mud substrates, (ii) whether they can be implemented for semi-automated classifications on regional scales, (iii) rational and effective ways of combining results that use different properties of image segments.

The Role of Variability in Mine Burial Prediction
The ultimate long-term goal of the ONR Mine Burial Prediction (MBP) program is the development of mine burial probability models that incorporate dynamic coupled processes, seafloor material properties, and different mine types. A second major thrust is on short-term applied research that will provide Fleet Aids for the operational Navy. The short-term effort will provide the operational Navy w...
متن کاملTransition of Bayesian Expert System Model for Mine Burial to NAVO
This work supports mine burial prediction by the US Navy by transitioning the capabilities provided by state-of-the-art, high-resolution process models to Naval operations. These models are synthesized by a statistical prediction tool (the Mine Burial Expert System—MBESM), which relates uncertainty in model input to uncertainty in the predicted mine burial. This work will produce more detailed ...
متن کاملMine Impact Burial Prediction From One to Three Dimensions
The Navy’s mine impact burial prediction model creates a time history of a cylindrical or a noncylindrical mine as it falls through air, water, and sediment. The output of the model is the predicted mine trajectory in air and water columns, burial depth/orientation in sediment, as well as height, area, and volume protruding. Model inputs consist of parameters of environment, mine characteristic...
متن کاملExpert System For Mine Burial Prediction
The degree of mine burial is a crucial factor in Mine Counter Measure (MCM) mission planning, having a significant effect on sensor range and effectiveness. The ultimate goal of this project is to provide an mine burial prediction fleet aid for operational Navy MCM decision making that incorporates recent research in burial mechanisms and seafloor sediment behavior. This predictive tool should ...
متن کاملDevelopment of the Navy ’ s 3 D Mine Impact Burial Prediction Model ( IMPACT 35 )
1 Atract-Falling of mine through air, water, and sediment is investigated experimentally and theoretically. Two experiments were conducted to drop cylindrical mine with the density ratio around 1.8 into shallow water (around 13 m deep) in the Monterey Bay (Exp-1) and into the Naval Postgraduate School’s swimming pool (Exp-2). During the experiments, we carefully observe mine track and burial de...
