abstract = "We present a novel framework for analysis and visualization of fish  schools in 3D sonar surveys. The 3D sonar technology is new and there  have not been applications to visualize the data in 3D. We have created  an application called Sonar Explorer that satisfies the requirements  of domain scientists. Sonar Explorer provides easy and intuitive  semi-automatic fish school tracking and survey map generation. The  overall pipeline is described and all pipeline stages relevant for  visualization are highlighted. We present techniques to deal with  3D sonar data specifics: highly anisotropic volume data aligned on  a curvilinear grid. Domain scientists provide initial impressions  on interaction and outlook.",
