Abstract:
Refineries, the chemical industry, airports etc. have an existing stock of thousands of storage tanks, the majority of which were manufactured in the sixties. Depending on the field of industry they are used in, these tanks contain environmentally harmful fluids such as gasoline or petroleum oil in the petrochemical industry or acids in the chemical industry. Other than in newly constructed tanks, there are few possibilities in preventive leak detection in older tank constructions, as the bottom plate is in direct contact to the ground. Hidden corrosion in this structural element has caused a

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the use of vision sensors in Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) navigation, which is typically performed using a combination of dead-reckoning and external acoustic positioning systems. Traditional dead-reckoning sensors such els Doppler Velocity Logs (DVLs) or inertial systems are expensive and result in drifting trajectory estimates. Acoustic positioning systems can be used to correct dead-reckoning drift, however they are time consuming to deploy and have a limited range of operation. Occlusion and multipath problems may also occur when a vehicle operates near the
