From Local Training to Large-Scale Mapping: A Comparative Assessment of Machine Learning and Deep Learning for Transferable Satellite-Derived Bathymetry

Announce Type: cross Abstract: Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) from multispectral imagery is cost-effective but scales poorly across regions, especially in optically complex coastal environments. We evaluate machine learning and deep learning for transferable SDB over the 0-20 m depth range using Sentinel-2 imagery. A Random Forest baseline and four CNNs (ResNet-50, ResNet-101, EfficientNet-B4, ConvNeXt-Large) are trained on Pratas Island and selected Great Barrier Reef regions, then...
