Habitat Mapping

"Habitat mapping involves the mapping and monitoring wildlife habitats to estimate population size, identify critical habitat, and predict the impacts of environmental change. Remote sensing has often been identified as a key data source for supporting habitat mapping" (McDermid, Franklin, and LeDrew 2005)

Coral reefs provide integral services to social, economic, and ecological systems. They support more than 500 million livelihoods worldwide and account for 15% of gross domestic product in more than 20 countries. A quarter of all marine species on planet Earth, representing 28 of the 35 animal phyla, can be found in coral reefs, and novel compounds derived from these organisms provide numerous useful medicinal applications.
