Purpose
|
|
ROV groundtruthing of sidescan sonar.
|
|
Scientific purpose/goals visual groundtruthing of sidescan sonar mosaics to be used for nearshore benthic habitat maps.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Benthic habitat maps will be compiled
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
ROV deployments were conducted in 4 areas in the study area.
|
|
2 were within the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary,
|
|
2 others were in California state fish reserves along the California coast.
|
|
Digital video was recorded on all ROV deployments.
|
|
Observations of benthic geology and biologic assemblages were recorded
|
|
as point data in an ArcView project.
