Benthic habitat mapping: A review of three decades of mapping biological patterns on the seafloor

open access: yesEstuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2023
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 ...

Coastal benthic habitat mapping and monitoring by integrating aerial and water surface low-cost drones

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Accurate data on community structure is a priority issue in studying coastal habitats facing human pressures. The recent development of remote sensing tools has offered a ground-breaking way to collect ecological information at a very fine scale ...

Assessing the effectiveness of UAV data for accurate coastal dune habitat mapping

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing, 2023
Coastal dunes are considered some of the most threatened and vulnerable habitats in the European Union. Mapping the spatial distribution of these habitats is an essential task for their conservation.

Finding Misclassified Natura 2000 Habitats by Applying Outlier Detection to Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The monitoring of Natura 2000 habitats (Habitat Directive 92/43/EEC) is a key activity ensuring the sufficient protection of European biodiversity. Reporting on the status of Natura 2000 habitats is required every 6 years. Although field mapping is still

A survey on automatic habitat mapping [PDF]

open access: yesInstrumentation viewpoint, 2018
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

Very High-Resolution Satellite-Derived Bathymetry and Habitat Mapping Using Pleiades-1 and ICESat-2

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Accurate and reliable bathymetric data are needed for a wide diversity of marine research and management applications. Satellite-derived bathymetry represents a time saving method to map large shallow waters of remote regions compared to the current ...

A global map of terrestrial habitat types [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Data, 2020
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing, 2022
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 ...

Functional Analysis for Habitat Mapping in a Special Area of Conservation Using Sentinel-2 Time-Series Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The mapping and monitoring of natural and semi-natural habitats are crucial activities and are regulated by European policies and regulations, such as the 92/43/EEC. In the Mediterranean area, which is characterized by high vegetational and environmental
