The original imagery was collected using a Digital Multi-Spectral Video unit developed by Specterra Systems Inc.
These data are used to assess the extent of kelp resources along the coast of California.This image file was created from Digital Multi-Spectral Video image files. The original .IMG files created by the DMSV were converted to .FXD files to assure spectral resolution and integrity by a batchfix MS-DOS program. The images were then imported into TNTMips software and georeferenced using DOQs from the United States Geological Survey. After the images had been georeferenced they were re sampled to a 2 meter cell size using a nearest neighbor method designed by Microimages Inc. Areas with a high glint factor (reflection from the sun on choppy water) were extracted to enhance the classification process. All of the images were then mosaiced based on an affine feathering method. The images were subsequently feature mapped and automatically classified to display areas of kelp. The resampled and classified image was then exported into a Arcview BIL file. The BIL file was converted into and Arcview Grid to calculate area. The GRID data was then converted to ESRI shapefile format for display purposes using a weed tolerance of 1.35.Collection Dates8\22\20028\23\20029\10\20029\1\200210\4\200210\7\200210\8\2002None planned-124.366582-116.53449440.36148932.554197383950.8125011050634.2390803617053.3392144467882.000114REQUIRED: Reference to a formally registered thesaurus or a similar authoritative source of theme keywords.Kelp2002SurveyThese are public data.The Deparment of Fish and Game must be credited with the collection, anlysis and distribution of these data.
