The Reef Fish Visual Census (RVC) provides data on frequency of occurrence, fish lengths, abundance of reef fish and community composition taken from underwater divers. Data collections are from: Flower Garden Banks Florida: Puerto Rico: US Virgin Islands: The same data may be available from OBIS USA Various NCEI Accessions Various ERDDAP forms sciencebase.gov |
* Purpose |
The main objective of this system is to: 1) compare fish populations between reefs and other habitats, and 2) quantitatively monitor reef fish composition and relative or absolute abundance over time |

Question |
What is ERDDAP ? |
Answer |
ERDDAP acts as a middleman between you and various remote data servers. ERDDAP offers an easy-to-use, consistent way to request data: via the OPeNDAP standard. Many datasets can also be accessed via ERDDAP's Web Map Service (WMS). ERDDAP returns data in the common file format of your choice. ERDDAP offers all data as .html table, ESRI .asc and .csv, Google Earth .kml, OPeNDAP binary, .mat, .nc, ODV .txt, .csv, .tsv, .json, and .xhtml. |

Question |
What are CRCP and NCRMP ? |
Answer |
The NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) is a matrix program administered by NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) and operating across four NOAA line offices: NOS, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS), and Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR). The program supports coral reef regions of the United States (U.S.), has an international component, and is integrated with other federal agencies, states, territories and commonwealths, and local governments. In September 2007, CRCP conducted an external program review for an assessment of the CRCP's effectiveness in achieving its mandates and to provide recommendations for improving its impact and performance. Recommendations from this review, along with the subsequent planning process (the roadmap) shaped the recent history of the CRCP. In 2011, CRCP welcomed a new program manager, John Christensen, to lead the program forward. 2012 ushered in the first activities under the new National Coral Reef Monitoring Plan (NCRMP). |
