Description
This project is a cooperative effort between the NationalOcean Service, National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science, Center forCoastal Monitoring and Assessment, the state of Florida andAnalytical Laboratories of Hawaii, LLC. The goal of the work is to useNOAA-developed mapping methods to produce benthic habitat maps of southern Florida.The maps are generated by photo interpreting georeferenced IKONOS satellite imagery.These underwater video and still images are collected to perform ground validation ofseafloor habitat features during map preparation.
