Marine ecosystem mapping of Taman Laut Labuan

Khaira Ismail, . and Idham Khalil,, . and Azizi Ali, . and Zainudin Bachok, . and Rozaimi Che Hasan, . and Wei, Sheng Chong (2018) Marine ecosystem mapping of Taman Laut Labuan. [Proceedings Paper]

The first habitat mapping of marine parks in Malaysia were carried out in Taman Laut Labuan (TLL) by integrating acoustic technique, in situ sampling and drone mapping. The objective of this project is to add spatial and ecological context to the benthic habitats in TLL. Few approaches were used to integrate this data that includes; terrain and multivariate statistical analysis for marine landscape mapping, coral video transect for benthic data, supervised classification of drone image and grain size analysis for sediment distribution mapping. 8 marine landscape zones were identified using acoustic data and sediment data, coral video transect showed correlation with the zones and drone mapping came up with three level of classifications. The most detail classification managed to detect the coral growth form within the intertidal area.
