Iceberg Detection in Low Visibility Conditions via Infra-Red Sensors: Processing and Modelling of Field Data

Abstract

This article deals with Short Wave Infra-Red (SWIR) and Long Wave Infra-Red (LWIR) imaging sensors for detecting icebergs in harsh metocean conditions. Field data acquired during the Statoil Offshore Newfoundland Research Expedition 2015 (ONRE15) is analyzed. The analysis is supported by a numerical modelling study which aims at simulating the optical properties of ice and water combined with the radiation transfer in the Infra Red.
