CARIS HIPS and SIPS are specialized software for multibeam bathymetric data and sonar image processing.CARIS HIPS and SIPS are suitable for marine application requirements. Reliability and usability are important for multibeam bathymetric data processing and sonar imagery.CARIS HIPS is used for multibeam bathymetric data processing and CARIS SIPS is used for side scan sonar imagery and multibeam backscatter echo data processing.
1. Sonar Noise Classifier
We invite you to bring noise to the first sonar noise classifier introduced by CARIS Mira AI! The Sonar Noise Classifier automatically recognizes the vast majority of sonar noise, thereby reducing manual cleaning efforts by a factor of 10 and achieving 95% accuracy. The Sonar Noise Classifier is trained to recognize a wide range of noise patterns from acoustic sensors. The algorithm assigns confidence values to all detections on a scale from 0 to 100%, where 100% indicates the highest confidence level of the classifier that the detection is noise. When running the Sonar Noise Classifier, you can reject sounds by setting your confidence threshold. The Subset Editor can be used to review the noise classification values by confidence coloring and editing the sound rejection thresholds. Allow us to help you with your data backlog and save your people for tasks that machines can’t do.
2、Automation
Automation is a core concept of HIPS and SIPS and can be used to improve workflow efficiency and ease of use.Process Designer provides a powerful tool for building automated workflows graphically, allowing users to optimize and ensure consistency throughout the data processing process. The available Python API also provides greater flexibility for organizations looking to merge HIPS and SIPS into larger professional workflows.
3. Knife Groove Pattern Backscattering
CARIS has been advancing the SIPS backscatter engine to enable a simple and autonomous process for creating artifact-free and robust backscatter products. This is achieved through a combination of several industry leading tools such as multimode beam mapping and area-based AVG correction. In most surveys, the focus is on collecting high-quality depth information using dynamic sonar setups, and the SIPS backscatter engine provides the necessary tools to easily generate high-quality mosaics through one process at the end of the bathymetric processing workflow.
