Abstract: Sea bottom structure recognition nowadays is a matter of great interest due to huge spectrum of potential applications, such as a hydrography, military oceanography, marine geosciences, offshore industry, environmental protection and many others. For that reason a great variety of tools and techniques for sea bottom measurements and modeling is developed. However, each technique leads to specific bottom images and allows to determine only few characteristics of examined area. In the paper are presented experimental results collected in the Gdansk Gulf region obtained by means of three technique: wide side sonar, parametric sonar and multi-beam sonar.
