| Statement | Reference: Schill, S.R.; McNulty, V.P.; Pollock, F.J.; Luthje, F.; Li, J.; Knapp, D.E.; Kington, J.D.; McDonald, T.; Raber, G.T.; Escovar-Fadul, X.; et al. Regional High-Resolution Benthic Habitat Data from Planet Dove Imagery for Conservation Decision-Making and Marine Planning. Remote Sens. 2021, 13, 4215. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs13214215. The Nature Conservancy created this map using PlanetScope (PS) Dove Classic SmallSat constellation, which delivers high-resolution imagery (4 m) and near-daily global coverage that facilitates the compilation of a cloud-free and optimal water column image composite of the Caribbean's nearshore environment. These data were used to develop a first-of-its-kind regional thirteen-class benthic habitat map to 30 m water depth using an object-based image analysis (OBIA) approach; maps were sectioned by Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs). SAERI converted the TNC raster files to polygons, translated raster values into assigned habitat, cleaned the maps in mapshaper.com using the -clean function, edited the data to fit with the Data Exchange Format, and removed any holes with an area less than 25m^2. |
