This project is a cooperative effort between the National Ocean
Service, National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science, Center for
Coastal Monitoring and Assessment, the University of Hawaii, and
Analytical Laboratories of Hawaii, LLC. The goal of the work was to
develop coral reef mapping methods and compare benthic habitat maps
generated by photointerpreting georeferenced color aerial
photography, hyperspectral and IKONOS satellite imagery.
The enhanced spectral resolution of hyperspectral and control of
bandwidths of multispectral data yield an advantage over color aerial
photography particularly when coral health and time series analysis
of coral reef community structure are of interest. Depending on the
type of instrument, a spectral imaging system can be utilized to see
multiple colors from ultraviolet through the far infrared range. The
AURORA hyperspectral imaging system collected 72 ten nm bands in the
visible and near infrared spectral range with a 3 meter pixel
resolution. The data was processed to select band widths, which
optimized feature detection in shallow and deep water.
Photointerpreters can accurately and reliably delineate boundaries of
features in the imagery as they appear on the computer monitor using
a software interface such as the Habitat Digitizer.
The National Ocean Service is conducting research to
digitally map biotic resources and coordinate a long-term monitoring
program that can detect and predict change in U.S. coral reefs, and
their associated habitats and biological communities.

All habitat delineations were completed
by a photointerpreter on data that had been processed only to
maximize specific band widths for viewing data at varying depths.
Habitat delineations could be made accurately in water depths up to
30 meters. Band combinations were selected which optimized benthic
habitat information in shallow and deep water and the scenes were
converted into RGB composites.
The shallow band IDs and centers were configured as:
1) Band 17 at 508.319 nm
2) Band 22 at 547.918 nm
3) Band 27 at 605.516 nm
The deep band IDs and centers were configured as:
1) Band 11 at 450.001 nm
2) Band 22 at 547.918 nm
3) Band 33 at 663.835 nm
The hyperspectral imagery were
obtained at a 3 meter pixel resolution
The hyperspectral image data were collected
using the AURORA Hyperspectral Imaging data acquisition system
(Advanced Power Technologies, Inc). Navigation data were
incorporated using the Applanix inertial navigation system. The
imaging system was used to collect 72 ten nm bands in the visible and
near infrared spectral range at a three meter pixel resolution.

The raw data were processed by the Analytical
Laboratories of Hawaii, LLC using Research Systems, Inc. ENVI
software. Band combinations were selected which optimized benthic
habitat information in shallow and deep water and the scenes were
converted into RGB composites. The hyperspectral images were
georeferenced and mosaiced using Scene Stitcher, a stand-alone
software program produced by Advanced Power Technologies, Inc.

A flightline containing hyperspectral imagery
will have two separate image files representing a subset of 6 bands
from the 72 original bands collected. File naming convention is as
follows 'flightline number-date(s) acquired-hyperspectral or airphoto
imagery'. Hyperspectral flightline files will end in either 272217 or
332211 representing the band number in the respective file. Band
numbers equate to the following spectral wavelength in nanometers:
27-605.51991, 22- 556.918030, 17- 508.319000, 33- 663.835022, and 11-
450.001007. These approximate true-color band combinations were
chosen to highlight shallow (272217) and deep (332211) water benthic
features. Note that the resolution of the georeferenced imagery has
been degraded significantly to reduce file size and facilitate
internet viewing.
