Benthic habitat mapping: A review of three decades of mapping biological patterns on the seafloor
What is benthic habitat mapping, how is it accomplished, and how has that changed over time? We query the published literature to answer these questions and synthesize the results quantitatively to provide a comprehensive review of the field over the ...

A survey on automatic habitat mapping [PDF]
Habitat mapping can help assess the health of an ecosystem but the task is not always straightforward as, depending on the environment to be mapped, data types can be very different, such as marine and land habitats where in one case you can use sonar images and in the other satellite pictures. In this survey we explore works that used machine learning

A global map of terrestrial habitat types [PDF]
AbstractWe provide a global, spatially explicit characterization of 47 terrestrial habitat types, as defined in the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) habitat classification scheme, which is widely used in ecological analyses, including for quantifying species’ Area of Habitat.

Remote sensing of river habitat for salmon restoration
Losses of river complexity and viable habitat has led to negative effects on Atlantic salmon. With the rapid population decline of Atlantic salmon, there has been an increase in river restoration and salmon reintroduction projects, and an understanding ...
