Abstract
The analysis of underwater topography ultrasonic image, which can be obtained by using B-scan ultrasound imaging technique, is the basis and important work in topography study. In this paper, we present a novel self-adapted method for the extraction of submerged topographic line. Since the distribution of gray values in the image has a mutation process, this feature is used to appropriately track the topographic line of imaging band, and wavelet denoising method is applied to denoise the obtained lines. The described method also takes the continuity of topography into consideration during tracking procedure. The results show that the extraction error is within 2-pixel width (approximate 1 mm). This method is suitable for the extraction of current model topographic lines with the advantages of good self-adaption, high speed and high resolution.
