Abstract

The complete and detailed knowledge of the sea bottom properties in the present time is fundamental for handling, monitoring, profiteering and education of the national marine spaces. The technological development in sea bottom exploration has circled around echo sounders, systems that deliver not only bathymetry information but acoustic backscatter information. The proper measurement and analysis of backscatter information from the current multibeam echo sounders is useful for determining sea floor characteristics and sedimentary processes. Observation of various factors that influence the measurement of backscatter intensity was made, for finally obtaining an effective methodology for the acquisition and analysis of this information, taking it into a real scenario with the actual capacities of the National Hydrographic Service (CIOH Caribe).
