This paper proposes a three-phase procedure for maritime corridor generation. The main input of this procedure is a bathymetric map. It outputs a collection of potential corridors relating different start and end points. The proposed procedure is structured into three successive phases: (1) spatial data transformation; (2) construction of the connectivity graph; and (3) identification of potential corridors. The proposed approach has been implemented and applied to identify a collection of corridors for locating a maritime highway linking the archipelago of Kerkennah to Sfax city in Tunisia. Four pairs of start and end points have been considered in this application, leading to four potential corridors, each represented as a collection of linearly adjacent polygons.
