  • Abstract
    The objective of this work is to demonstrate an automated Electro-Optical and Infrared (EO/IR) system for measuring marine mammal densities. The ability of an EO/IR system to make density measurements without corresponding acoustic and visual data is only limited by the number of animals present and the probability that the animal is close enough to the surface to be detected and tracked. It is discussed the utility of this type of EO/IR system in measuring the densities of various species of interest.
