The software complex for visualization, multiple-view processing and data storage of hydroacoustic resource surveys

The description of the software package created for the study and assessment of aquatic biological resources is presented. This software package is provided visualization of acoustic images (echograms) with different scaling of the sensed space and the selection of areas (layers). The software package are used hydroacoustic, biological, navigation and other data that located in the integrated database. These data are displayed as separate windows (modules) and enter into the composition of the program interface. The software package allows you to load and display simultaneously several echogram files with lag marks and integration results, layers (including the trawling layer), strata boundaries, species composition within the selected layer and stratum, histograms by single target strength in the selected layer, histograms for length, recalculated from the target strength for several species of fish and other data. This software package allows you to concentrate on the desktop all the information necessary for high-quality analysis and multispecies processing of echograms in real time. The software package calculates and stores in a tabular form the values of fish density, abundance and biomass and their distribution with a given step by statistical squares, by species, size series, by depth, etc. The software package is used in the practice of echointegration traw-acoustic surveys of TINRO at this time. Upgrade software is planned in the near future.
