Application of a procedure to obtain a bathymetric model in shallow waters by means of the employment of satellites images

Abstract

The Cuban marine platform extends over an area of 70,000 km², surrounded by numerous keys, where a significant percentage is made up of areas of low depth (0.5 – 8 m) and high transparency in the water column, which enable the use of Remote Sensing (PR) in the determination of sea depths in shallow waters.
