abstract = "In this work we present a bottom type mapping produced from high
spatial resolution remote sensing data for the Marine National
Park in the Abrolhos Coral Reef Bank (ACRB). Imagery of the
WorldView2 (WV02) orbital sensor, concomitant with field
observations, was used. The imagery was passed through routines of
geometric and atmospheric correction, and ws also corrected for
sunglint and water column interference. Due to limitations in
water column corrections, bottom reflectance was used only at 478
nm. The resulting map had an accuracy of 88.2% with a Kappa index
of 0.8 was considered satisfactory for the four thematic classes
used: Reef, Sand, Macroalgae, and Inter-reef areas. The isolated
reefs, locally known as chapeir{\~o}es, covered an area of
approximately 22 km2 that corresponds to 12.4% of the total area.
Chapeir{\~o}es were distributed in almost all the studied area,
formed by patches with different sizes and concentration of reefs.
Macroalgae constituted the most abundant benthic functional type
in the scene and concentrated around the Archipelago and
inter-reef areas. Further work regarding a more extensive in situ
data collection to conclusively describe the benthic communities
and their spectral behavior, as well as water column constituents
and bathymetric surveys are recommended to improve satellite
mapping of the bottoms types in the ACRB. More ground control
points are still required for a more robust validation of the
bottom type map.",
