Mapping and Visualizing Ancient Water Storage Systems with an ROV -- An Approach Based on Fusing Stationary Scans within a Particle Filter

This paper presents a new method for constructing 2D maps of enclosed un- derwater structures using an underwater robot equipped with only a 2D scanning sonar, compass and depth sensor. In particular, no motion model or odometry is used. To accomplish this, a two step offline SLAM method is applied...
