Purpose
|
Bathymetry was collected in 2009 and peak intensity of bottom reflection
provides an indication of benthic habitat type. Verification and ground
truthing is needed to type the benthic composition and allow for
cross-correlation with the bathymetric intensity.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Classification and verification of bottom type in order to create/confirm
benthic habitats
