...Acoustic devices are a monitoring approach built on the traditional use of benthic habitat mapping (see Brown et al., 2011), that can be used to determine the composition and abundance of different biodiversity components, especially fish and cetaceans (André et al., 2011; Denes et al., 2014;…...

...Multibeam echosounders (MBES), with their ability to simultaneously record bathymetry and backscatter strength, have become the system of choice for detailed, high-resolution seabed mapping (Brown et al., 2011a)....

...A variety of approaches has been trialled including artificial neural networks (Marsh and Brown, 2009; Ojeda et al., 2004), Bayesian decision rules (Simons and Snellen, 2009), decision trees (Che Hasan et al., 2012a; Dartnell and Gardner, 2004; Ierodiaconou et al., 2011; Rattray et al., 2009; Rooper and Zimmermann, 2007), support vector machines (Che Hasan et al., 2012b), Random Forest (Che Hasan et al., 2012b; Lucieer et al., 2013), Maximum Likelihood Classifier (Buhl-Mortensen et al., 2009; Che Hasan et al., 2012b; Ierodiaconou et al., 2011), clustering (Blondel and Gomez Sichi, 2009; Brown and Collier, 2008; Brown et al., 2012) and Principal Component Analysis within commercial software QTC Multiview (Brown et al., 2011b; McGonigle et al., 2009; Preston, 2009)....

...More recently, automated methods have been explored, driven largely by the advantages of using objective classification algorithms, thus minimising subjectivity (Brown et al., 2011a)....

...In addition, Brown et al. (2011) offer a useful summary of the extent to which many of these various terrain attributes have been employed within published habitat mapping studies in the period 2000 to 2011....

...Linked to the rise in the use of multibeam data for benthic habitat mapping (Brown et al., 2011; Smith and McConnaughey, 2016) the vast majority of habitat mapping studies with access to good bathymetry data are now using, or at least testing, some form of terrain attribute or feature classification in their habitat mapping activities, even though we note that many of these are not yet reflected in the peerreviewed literature....

...A particular focus is given to marine geomorphology studies, as a few other documents (e.g. McArthur et al., 2010; Brown et al., 2011; Harris and Baker, 2012; Rengstorf et al., 2012; Lecours et al., 2015b) already summarized the extent to which many of these techniques have been employed in habitat mapping studies, and many of these techniques have yet to be employed in other contexts....
