Additionally, and more recently, we include three coastal countries (land- locked "sea/lake" states) in the Caspian Sea, as well as seven additional coastal (land-locked "lake") states, for the Great Lakes of Africa. Therefore, basic LOS mapping principles, that begins with coastlines and/ or coastal frontages...

... that are not found in more southern latitudes for the oil and gas and transportation sectors, including permafrost and permafrost degradation. It is well acknowledged that the extent of permafrost in northern environments is poorly known and mapped. New tools are being used to help determine the extent...

... or mitigate significant hazards such as ice gouges, strudel scours, or permafrost upheaval zones for subsea pipeline routes in arctic environments. In this paper, we demonstrate a workflow to identify and map multiple geohazards, incorporate pipeline-related criteria, classify and weight features based...

... Abstract Arctic circulation drives multi-year sea ice against the Canadian Arctic Archepelago, making this margin one of the toughest regions in the Arctic Ocean to survey. Yet Canada had a need to map the seafloor in this region as part of its Extended Continental Shelf Program. One...

.... Reducing the risk of and/or responding to emergency situations requires a thorough understanding of both the coastal environment, adjacent submerged lands and often the jurisdictional boundaries of stakeholders. In most cases, this effort begins with a mapping program that identifies the land/seabed...

... for operations support inthe Arctic. Our developed processes generate several products that supportnavigation and operations in ice infested waters: Sea ice images, i.e.delineating and mapping sea ice relative to the open water, Seasonal trendcharts of sea ice over an area of interest and, Automated ice...

... Abstract In conducting safe and cost effective operations in ice prone waters, icemanagement and risk mitigation practices are integral to operations. A criticalelement in ice management is the mapping and characterisation of sea ice. Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a standard tool...
