This research considers a fundamentally new technology of automatic determination of ice border and classification of ice cover based on satellite images in the visible and near-infrared ranges for its subsequent presentation in Fishery Monitoring System (FMS) mapping services. The paper describes the stages of methodology development for determining automatic classification based on the analysis of two-dimensional histograms. The presented histograms were based on normalized indices. Particular attention is paid to comparative seasonal analysis of histograms. Preliminary results of automatic classification are presented as part of the Service for the provision of classification of ice cover which is based on satellite data integrated in the FMS mapping interface. The paper proposes the ways of further development of automatic classification of ice cover and FMS services related to the presentation of ice conditions.
Keywords: classification of ice cover, remote sensing, satellite image processing (decoding, recognition)
