This project will develop an enabling framework for environmental stakeholders to use Large Area Imaging (LAI) to support BVI coral monitoring through the acquisition of requisite equipment and photogrammetry software; hosting of field data collection and image-processing workshops; digitizing corals for at least three key sites; establishing data management systems and developing an online module to support future asynchronous training. This project will build capacity for using photogrammetry to evaluate ecosystem shifts/changes and become an invaluable reference for other projects.
