Abstract :
[en] The application of empirical methods for satellite-derived bathymetry is limited by the lack of in situ bathymetric data in remote, inaccessible areas. This challenge has been addressed with the launch of Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2). This study provides an accurate bathymetric photon extraction process for ICESat-2 ATL03 data, and the ${{\bm{R}}}^2$ value of the bathymetric photons obtained using this process and airborne bathymetric LiDAR data is up to 99%. Next, based on two types of remote sensing data, ICESat-2 and Sentinel-2, machine learning models, including linear regression (LR), light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM), and categorical boosting (CatBoost), were trained to obtain bathymetric maps. The experimental results show that the mean root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and mean relative error (MRE) values of the LR models are less than 3.02 m, 2.38 m, and 86.03%, respectively. The mean RMSE, MAE, and MRE values of the LightGBM and CatBoost models are less than 0.91 m, 0.66 m, and 23.17%, respectively. It is concluded that the proposed denoising process for ICESat-2 ATL03 data is effective, and the results of the bathymetric maps obtained using these data are satisfactory. Thus, the proposed approach is effective, and this strategy can be used to replace conventional bathymetric inversion methods to obtain high-accuracy bathymetric maps.
