This workshop aims to assess the understanding of the different underwater image based methods (video or photograph) for biological and physical data acquisition and its use for habitat mapping (habitat+species) either for fine scale mapping or for a broad scale mapping and/or as a tool for ground-truthing of acoustic signals and classification data.
The ultimate goal of this MeshAtlantic workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas relevant to habitat mapping: (i) data acquisition using video and photography, (ii) annotation and data extraction methods and software, (iii) statistical modelling of spatial distributions and (iv) map production. Its objective is to serve as a forum for presenting state of the art research, exchanging ideas and experiences, and facilitating interaction and collaboration.
