NESDIS Suspected Oil: Marine Pollution Surveillance Reports (MPSR) Metadata

Description

The Satellite Analysis Branch (SAB) of NOAA/NESDIS detects oil slicks in satellite imagery over U.S. waters (and international waters when requested by OR&R) in order to meet the NOAA Office of Response & Restoration (OR&R) need for oil spill information. The Marine Pollution Surveillance Report (MPSR) is issued by SAB satellite analysts when accidental or intentional marine oil spills are detected in imagery. The Marine Pollution Surveillance Program consists of manual detection and mapping of oil slicks primarily through the use of available moderate to high resolution optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite imagery.
