    "title": "National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Orthorectified mosaic images of a coral reef near Salt River in St. Croix USVI collected on 2022-09-06 to 2022-09-07 (NCEI Accession 0286825)",
    "description": "This data set contains landscape mosaic images, created as a product for the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program\u2019s (CRCP) National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). Orthorectified mosaic images of six reef plots were captured of a coral reef near Salt River in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands. Each reef plot is made up of a 10m x 10m transect area (100 m2). Landscape mosaics are a composite of many underwater images stitched together. These mosaics have the clarity and pixel size of the individual pictures but collectively produce a \u201clandscape view\u201d of the coral reef community within each transect. A scuba diver holds the mosaic rig, containing two separate cameras, above the transect while swimming in a lawnmower pattern creating a crosshatching design. The diver takes these underwater images about one to two meters above the seabed at a rate of one image per second per camera. This swimming technique allows the mosaic rig to gather 1500-3000 images which are then merged into a single \u201clandscape mosaic image\u201d file via Agisoft Photoscan\u00ae software. A total of six TIFF (.tif) files are included in this dataset, one TIFF file corresponds to one reef transect plot area.",
