Abstract:
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.
Purpose:
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.
