1. A method of determining a classification of at least one underwater object comprising:
- generating at least one low-resolution imagery of an object from a plurality of frequencies produced by a detection device;
extracting at least 5 characteristics of the object within the low-resolution imagery at each of the plurality of frequencies;
generating at least 15 features from the at least 5 characteristics; and
classifying the features to determine an identity of the at least one underwater object.
