<div>The Kimberley Region and WA Reefs Bathymetry was derived by EOMAP form multispectral satellite data from the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 satellite sensor. EOMAP was contracted by Geoscience Australia (GA) to provide high-resolution (10m) Satellite-Derived Bathymetry (SDB) for the Priority Australian Seabed Mapping Sites. The survey area encompasses an area within Kimberley Region in Western Australia which includes Ashmore Reef, Browse Island, Cartier Island, Clerke Reef, Cunningham Island, Mermaid Reef, Scott Reef and Seringapatam Reef. These critical geospatial data layers provide the essential environmental baseline information for the long-term monitoring and management of these Marine Parks. Mapping the shallow water zone is of importance both from an environmental and socioeconomic perspective. Having access to digital, georeferenced, high-resolution maps of bathymetry and benthic habitats of shallow water areas, is of fundamental use in the areas of navigation, ecological research, environmental modelling, management and conservation, and monitoring the impacts from climate change. Bathymetry data was processed using the physics-based inversion method to derive quantitative information of the shallow water bathymetry using the reflected sunlight energy in different wavelengths of the visible and near infrared region.

Background: This is a sub-product of DEA Surface Reflectance (Sentinel-2A MSI) - Geoscience Australia Sentinel-2A MSI Analysis Ready Data Collection 3. See the parent product for more information. Reflectance data at top of atmosphere (TOA) collected by Sentinel-2A MSI sensors can be affected by atmospheric conditions, sun position, sensor view angle, surface slope and surface aspect. Surfaces with varying terrain can introduce inconsistencies to optical satellite images through irradiance and bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) effects. For example, slopes facing the sun appear brighter compared with those facing away from the sun. Likewise, many surfaces on Earth are anisotropic in nature, so the signal picked up by a satellite sensor may differ depending on the sensor’s position. These need to be reduced or removed to ensure the data is consistent and can be compared over time. What this product offers: This product takes Sentinel-2A MSI imagery captured over the Australian continent and corrects the inconsistencies across the land and coastal fringe. It achieves this using Nadir corrected Bi-directional reflectance distribution function Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR). In addition, this product applies terrain illumination correction to correct for varying terrain. The resolution is a 10/20/60 m grid based on the the ESA level 1C archive. Applications: - The development of derivative products to monitor land, inland waterways and coastal features, such as: - urban growth - coastal habitats - mining activities - agricultural activity (e.g. pastoral, irrigated cropping, rain-fed cropping) - water extent - The development of refined information products, such as: - areal units of detected surface water - areal units of deforestation - yield predictions of agricultural parcels - Compliance surveys - Emergency management

Accurate information about the extent, frequency and duration of forest inundation is required to inform ecological, biophysical and hydrological models and enables floodplain managers to quantify the efficacy of flood mitigation/modification activities. Open water classifiers derived from optical remote sensing typically underestimate or fail to detect floodplain forest inundation. This paper presents a new method for detecting forest inundation dynamics using freely available Landsat and Sentinel 2 data, referred to as short-wave infrared mapping under vegetation. The method uses a dynamic threshold that accounts for the additional shortwave infrared reflectance caused by the presence of tree canopies over floodwater. The method is demonstrated at five Ramsar listed River Red Gum floodplain forest wetlands in southeastern Australia. Accuracy assessment based on independent drone imagery from a wide range of vegetated wetlands showed an absolute accuracy of 67%–70% and a fuzzy accuracy of 81%–83%. We found the method is conservative, and underestimates inundation (16%–18%) but very rarely misclassifies dry pixels as inundated (0.3%–0.6%). When compared to river gauge data, the method shows similar trends to an open water classifier (i.e., the area of inundated vegetation increases with increasing river height). The method is conservative compared to lidar-based floodplain inundation models but can be applied wherever cloud-free scenes of Landsat or Sentinel 2 have been acquired, thereby enabling floodplain managers with the ability to quantify changes in inundation dynamics in places/time-periods where lidar is unavailable. <b>Citation:</b> Lymburner, L., Ticehurst, C., Adame, M.

This resource contains a bathymetry compilation prepared by the University of Western Australia for the North West Shelf of Australia, between the Cape Range and the Dampier Peninsula. The compilation includes, by decreasing resolution: - Publicly available MBES datasets, made available by Geoscience Australia by December 2019. - Satellite derived bathymetry produced using 1000+ images acquired between January 2017 and December 2019. - Seismic derived bathymetry extracted from 100+ surveys acquired between 1981 and 2015. - SRTM topography, reprocessed by Galant et al, 2011: https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/72759 - 2009 Australian Bathymetry and Topography grid: https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/67703 The Seismic and Satellite derived bathymetry grids are also available as individual layers. The vertical and spatial accuracy of the datasets have been thoroughly assessed using high-resolution datasets including publicly available MBES and LADS surveys. The assessment indicates that the seismic derived bathymetry has a depth accuracy better than 1 m + 2% of the absolute water depths while the satellites derived bathymetry has a depth accuracy better than 1 m + 5% of the absolute water depths.
