CRED Optical Validation Data at Galvez Bank in the U.S. Territory of Guam, 2003 to Support Benthic Habitat Mapping
Optical validation data were collected using a Tethered Optical Assessment Device (TOAD), an underwater
sled equipped with an underwater digital video camera and lights. Data were collected in the U.S. territory of Guam,
around the island of Guam itself a...
Bathymetric Position Index (BPI) Structures 5 m grid derived from gridded bathymetry of Galvez Bank, South Galvez Bank, and 11-Mile Reef, Territory of Guam, USA.
BPI Structures are derived from two scales of a focal mean
analysis on bathymetry and slope. The grid is based on
gridded (5 m cell size) multibeam bathymetry, collected aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette.
BPI Structures was created using the Benthic Terr...
Bathymetric Position Index (BPI) Zones 5 m grid derived from gridded bathymetry of of Galvez Bank, South Galvez Bank, and 11-Mile Reef, Territory of Guam, USA.
BPI Zones are derived from a focal mean
analysis on bathymetry and slope. The grid is based on
gridded (5 m cell size) multibeam bathymetry, collected aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette.

Rugosity grid derived from gridded bathymetry of of Galvez Bank, South Galvez Bank, and 11-Mile Reef, Territory of Guam, USA.
Rugosity is derived from gridded (5 m cell size) multibeam bathymetry, aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette. Cell values reflect the (surface area) / (planimetric area) ratio for the area contained within that cell's boundaries. They provide indices o...
Slope grid derived from gridded bathymetry of Galvez Bank, South Galvez Bank, and 11-Mile Reef,
Territory of Guam, USA.
Slope is derived from gridded (5 m cell size) multibeam
bathymetry, collected aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette.
Cell values reflect the maximum rate of change (in degrees) in
elevation between neighboring cells derived with the ArcGIS
Spatial Analyst ex...

CRED Optical Validation Data collected on Galvez Bank, Territory of Guam; Saipan Island, and Thirty Five Fathom Bank,Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, USA, in 2010 to support Benthic Habitat Mapping
Optical validation data were collected using a Tethered Optical Assessment Device (TOAD), an underwater sled
equipped with an underwater digital video camera and lights, in the Saipan Anchorage area. Data were collected using
TOAD during two and a half w...
This map displays optical validation observation locations and percent coverage of scleractinian coral overlaid on bathymetry. Optical data were collected
by CRED TOAD camera sled aboard the NOAA ship Oscar Elton Sette on cruises OES 0308 and SE 1002, and...
