Sediment classification in reservoirs, lakes, rivers and many other water systems is a critical component of the resource management efforts in these water bodies.Precise sediment classification is important for multiple stakeholders. The import of sophisticated technology has failed to give us good results as the medium fluctuations are characteristic of our local conditions and significant indigenous efforts are required to understand these limitations and improve our underwater domain awareness.
