Water column data QA/QC flag and potential image correction #34

Closed CameronBodine closed 12 months ago

QA/QC Flag Independent and accurate depth picks for port and starboard sonar channels allows further analysis of water column pixels. Turbid regions can be distinguished from 'clean' regions, providing a means of flagging sub-optimal portions of a sonar recordings. End-users could use this information to identify locations needing to be re-scanned.

Image Corrections Water column returns could also guide potential corrections to returns from the bed. Unsure how at this time, but will record idea's here as they come about.
