Full Citation Examples
Methods used were adapted from a "cookbook" of instructions developed by Kyle Hogref
for using IKONOS imagery data to derive seafloor elevations in optically clear
water. This dataset was derived from high-resolution (2 m) imagery from DigitalGlobe's
WorldView-2 sensor of the Kaanapali area of Maui, Hawaii. Sensor bands 1,2
and 5 (coastal, blue and near IR respectively) were used to derive depth information.
The method assumes uniform water clarity but deviations from that condition
made extraction difficult in water greater than 30 m depth in the Kaanapali scene
used. Results show that biotic material or sediment in the water column skewed results
shallower if the material has a high albedo and deeper if the material has a low
albedo. Nearshore areas were significantly less impacted in the Kaanapali area,
due to the geomorphology of the area and the hi resolution and quality of the imagery,
allowing visual descrimination of apparent sediment in the water column.
For presentation purposes the map product shows an Inverse Distance Weighted interpolated
bathymetry surface, restricted to data within 600 m of the shoreline.

Abstract: |
Methods used were adapted from a "cookbook" of instructions developed by Kyle Hogref for using IKONOS imagery data to derive seafloor elevations in optically clear water. This dataset was derived from high-resolution (2 m) imagery from DigitalGlobe's WorldView-2 sensor of the Kaanapali area of Maui, Hawaii. Sensor bands 1,2 and 5 (coastal, blue and near IR respectively) were used to derive depth information. The method assumes uniform water clarity but deviations from that condition made extraction difficult in water greater than 30 m depth in the Kaanapali scene used. Results show that biotic material or sediment in the water column skewed results shallower if the material has a high albedo and deeper if the material has a low albedo. Nearshore areas were significantly less impacted in the Kaanapali area, due to the geomorphology of the area and the hi resolution and quality of the imagery, allowing visual descrimination of apparent sediment in the water column. For presentation purposes the map product shows an Inverse Distance Weighted interpolated bathymetry surface, restricted to data within 600 m of the shoreline. |
Purpose: |
DG WorldView-2 data are used as the base imagery to derived pseudobathymetry of the Kaanapali area of Maui. This area has both SHOALS and multi-beam acoustic derived bathymetry coverage and will provide an example case of the strengths and weaknesses of pseudobathymetry extraction from high resolution satellite imagery methods. |

Entity Attribute Overview: |
Depth values are real values based on the average of the soundings that fell within the extracted grid cells. The number of soundings per grid cell range from >1000 soundings in shallow depths to as few as 20 soundings in deeper areas. A total error budget for these data have not been developed. Therefore, the accuracy of depth measurements should be considered to be within 1 meter. |

NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) Data Sharing Recommendations, version 9.0 updated August 12, 2015: CREP welcomes the opportunity to collaborate on research issues contributing to the scientific basis for better management of marine ecosystems. CREP has a very diverse set of field activities that generates large volumes of data using an array of data collection protocols. The following recommendations are for your consideration as you use this data: 1) Data analyses should take all field exigencies into account. The most effective way to do this would be active collaboration with CREP principal investigators. 2) In all presentations, product releases, or publications using data generated by CREP, proper acknowledgement of both CREP and the individuals responsible for data collection is expected. Citing the DOI (if available) is preferred, a non-DOI example is listed below. 3) If you collect or generate data for the same study areas, CREP requests that you share relevant information on complimentary data collections. 4) Those receiving data are strongly urged to inform the CREP Data Management Team of any errors and discrepancies that are discovered during the course of using these data. They are further urged to bring to the attention of the Team all problems and difficulties encountered in using these data. This information is necessary in order to improve the collections and to facilitate more efficient and economical data processing and retrieval. The users are asked to supply copies of any missing data that may be located, and to provide information as to significant subsets and special aggregations of data that are developed in using the material provided.

Process Steps
Process Step 1
Description: |
Multiple tools in ENVI 4.8 were used to complete the following processing steps: Data conversion from digital number to radiance, correction for atmosphere and water surface reflection, linearization of spectral decay as function of depth, masking of non-applicable values, and bathymetric derivation using variables from multiple linear regression analysis. Multiple tools in ArcGIS 10.0 were used for dataset integration and to extract values for the multiple linear regression analysis and subsequent error analyses. The statisitcs program Matlab was used for the multiple linear regression analysis to provide original variables for depth derivation. The multivariate slope intercept formula used to derive depth was D = a + (bi)(xi) + (bj)(xj) Where: D = depth a = intercept b = slope x = the linearized spectral value resulted in 7.8491 - 2.8696(b1) + 7.9593(b2) b1 is the output masked linearized pictral value of each pixel of Coastal band b2 is the output masked linearized pictral value of each pixel of Blue band More information on this integration process is provided in the product error analysis, availble from PIBHMC upon request. This mosaiced derived bathymetry product (JohDBall3) was then integrated with the multibeam sonar data, with sonar data prioritized over derived data, to create the final product (JohDB3MB). A detailed description of all processing steps is available at: ftp://ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pibhmc/website/webdocs/documentation/Cookbook_042108.pdf An error analysis of each derived bathymetry grid used is available from PIBHMC upon request. To produce the interpolated surface shown in the map, the floating point grid was converted to a point shapefile in Arc GIS 9.3 using the 'float to raster' and 'raster to point' tools in the Arc Toolbox. A buffer of 600m from the shoreline was created and the derived bathymetry points were clipped to exclude data outside this buffer. This distance was chosen to exclude areas of deeper water that were erroneously returning shallow depth values, due to characteristics of the water column. An Inverse Distance Weighted interpolation was run using 3D Analyst, to produce an interpolated surface, with a grid cell size of 10 m, a variable search radius with a maximum distance of 60 m, and using the coastline as a barrier. All other settings used were default. The interpolated surface was clipped using the coastline and a small number of isolated cells were manually deleted. |
