Great Barrier Reef mapping
We are developing detailed geomorphic zonation, benthic composition and coral type maps for the entire Great Barrier Reef, combining field data, satellite imagery, physical attributes, object-based analysis and modelling.
Project leads: Chris Roelfsema and Stuart Phinn, with Mitchell Lyons, Eva Kovacs, Kat Markey, Paul Tudman, David Callaghan, Juan Ortiz and Peter Mumby
Global coral reef mapping and monitoring
We are applying consistent mapping approaches to coral reefs globally, combining combination high satellite imagery, field data, machine learning, object-based analysis and cloud processing.
Project leads: Chris Roelfsema and Stuart Phinn, with Mitchell Lyons, Eva Kovacs, Rodney Borrego, Dan Harris, Emma Kennedy, Nick Murray, Alex Ordonez, Kat Markey, Paul Tudman, Jeremy Wolf, Chantal Say and Meredith Roe
Seagrass mapping and monitoring
We are developing approaches to map and monitor the seagrass species composition, and biomass r at various spatial scales locally and internationally (for example, Fiji, Solomon Islands).
Project leads: Chris Roelfsema and Stuart Phinn, with Mitchell Lyons, Eva Kovacs and Nick Murray
Monitoring coastal change
We use a suite of remote sensing tools to track coastal change and the processes driving this change over time in order to help coastal planning and management.
Project lead: Daniel Harris
