Niihau Ground Validation Point Data for Benthic Habitats ofthe Main Hawaiian Islands Prepared by Visual Interpretation fromRemote Sensing Imagery Collected by NOAA Year 2000

This project is a cooperative effort among the NationalOcean Service, National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science, Center for Coastal Monitoring and Assessment; the University of Hawaii; and Analytical Laboratories of Hawaii, LLC. The goal of the work was to develop coral reef mapping methods and compare benthic habitat maps generated by photointerpreting georeferenced color aerial photography, hyperspectral and IKONOS satellite imagery. These pointdata were generated to conduct ground validation during map preparation.
