Satellite Derived Bathymetry and Seafloor Classification performed by EOMAP, Tenerife, Spain

As part of the Ocean Citizen project, a satellite-based dataset was purchased to capture bathymetry and habitat characteristics in water depths <10 m and to enable a comparison between optical and acoustical-derived habitat maps. Satellite-derived bathymetry is captured based on sunlight captured by multispectral satellite sensors to determine water depths in coastal and shallow marine environments.
