Abstract:
A method of stereoscopic mapping an underwater location includes determining a relative position and relative distance between two separate sensors on separate underwater platforms. Each of the two separate sensors scans a same underwater feature from its respective determined relative position. A stereoscopic image of the underwater feature is created from the two scanned images.
