BPI zones are surficial characteristics of the seafloor based on a bathymetric position index value range at a broad scale and slope values. High-resolution multibeam bathymetry, derivatives of bathymetry (bathymetric position index, slope and rugosity), backscatter imagery and in situ visual survey data have been combined in a geographic information system (GIS). These data are supplemented by three-dimensional (3D) visualization. Within this study, methods were developed for benthic mapping and applied to three sites around American Samoa, a new classification scheme was developed for bathymetric position index (BPI) zones (depressions, slopes, flats, crests) and structures (finer features within zones) around the study sites, and visual survey information was associated with the results. BPI Zones were derived as a baseline, or framework, for spatial analysis during future habitat studies around American Samoa. completed Pacific Islands Benthic Habitat Mapping Center (PIBHMC), Coral Reef Ecosystem Division (CRED), Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) 808 725-5360 808 725-5429 NOAA IRC NMFS/PIFSC/CRED 1845 WASP Blvd., Building 176 Honolulu HI 96818 nmfs.pic.credinfo@noaa.gov pointOfContact asNeeded CoRIS_Metadata theme NCEI Geoportal Filter Benthic Habitat Mapping and Characterization - American Samoa and PRIA 1084 project CRCP Project Geographic Information > Habitats theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Reef Monitoring and Assessment > Mapping > Habitat Mapping EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Coastal Processes > Coral Reefs > Coral Reef Ecology > Habitats theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus bathymetric position index BPI grid seafloor derivative base layer bathymetry zones surficial broad scale theme none OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Tutuila Island > Fagatele Bay (14S170W0002) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > American Samoa > Tutuila Island > Fagatele Bay (14S170W0002) place CoRIS Place Thesaurus Southwest Pacific American Samoa Tutuila Island Fagatele Bay place none AmSam place CoRIS Region NOT for navigational purposes NOAA makes no warranty regarding these data,expressed or implied, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty.

All zoness found were accounted for in the classsification scheme. These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. This study uses the extensive multibeam bathymetry coverage around American Samoa to analyze and classify Bathymetric Position Index (BPI) zones, structures and rugosity for depths that can not be efficiently reached by other surveying methods. The methods developed here and applied to American Samoa sites are the first to successfully create a benthic classification for multibeam bathymetry beyond 30 meters depth that extends existing shallow water benthic classifications (The Development and Application of Benthic Classifications for Coral Reef Ecosystems Below 30M Depth using Multibeam Bathynmetry: Tutuila, American Samoa, 2004, Appendix A). Spatial analysis was used to derive slope and multiple scales of bathymetric position from the original bathymetry. The resulting derivative grids were combined with a new algorithm to develop final products: BPI zones, structures and rugosity classification maps for each study site. The maps make use of a new classification scheme that may be extended to other coral reef systems. The classification methods identify four BPI zones: crests, depressions, flats, and slopes. if (nfb02_tpi250s >= 100) fb_zns = 1 else if (nfb02_tpi250s <= -100) fb_zns = 2 else if (nfb02_tpi250s > -100 and nfb02_tpi250s < 100 and nfb02_slp <= 5) fb_zns = 3 else if (nfb02_tpi250s > -100 and nfb02_tpi250s < 100 and nfb02_slp > 5) fb_zns = 4 endif For additional information see ftp://ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pibhmc/web/docs/Lundblad_Thesis.pdf Source Used: http://dusk.geo.orst.edu/djl/samoa 2003-06-24T00:00:00 Pacific Islands Benthic Habitat Mapping Center (PIBHMC), Coral Reef Ecosystem Division (CRED), Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) 808 725-5360 808 725-5429 NOAA IRC NMFS/PIFSC/CRED 1845 WASP Blvd., Building 176 Honolulu HI 96818 nmfs.pic.credinfo@noaa.gov processor annually This metadata was automatically generated from the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata standard (version FGDC-STD-001-1998) using the 2016-01-11 version of the FGDC RSE to ISO 19115-2 transform.
