      Abstract: 
        Benthic habitat maps for the nearshore, shallow (< 30 m) coastal 
        waters of Necker Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) 
        and the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument. NOAA's National 
        Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) produced these data to 
        support coral reef research and management. Habitat regions were 
        digitally identified using visual interpretation of orthorectified 
        satellite imagery with a minimum mapping unit (MMU) of approximately 
        100 square meters (1/40 acre).
        
        A slightly different benthic habitat classification scheme was used 
        for the NWHI compared to the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) and other 
        regions across the Pacific (e.g., American Samoa, Guam, and CNMI). 
        While many classes are similar, they are not categorized as biological 
        cover types, geomorphological structure types, and geographic zones. 
        Instead, a hierarchical scheme was used to flexibly denote substrate 
        category (e.g., unconsolidated and hardbottom), structure (e.g., 
        linear reef or pavement), and cover (e.g., coral, coralline algae, or 
        macroalgae).
        
        A total of 45 detailed benthic habitat classes were identified within 
        the NWHI. For simplification and to more easily distinguish cover 
        types, these are presented in a set of 7 aggregated benthic habitat 
        classes including 5 hardbottom substrate classes (live coral, 
        coralline algae, macroalgae, uncolonized, and unknown biological 
        cover) and 2 unconsolidated substrate classes (macroalgae and 
        uncolonized). Query an aggregated polygon to get the detailed benthic 
        habitat classification at the clicked location.
      Purpose: 
        PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to 
        support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in 
        the U.S. Pacific Islands region.

      Abstract: 
        Benthic habitat maps for the nearshore, shallow (< 30 m) coastal 
        waters of Necker Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) 
        and the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument. NOAA's National 
        Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) produced these data to 
        support coral reef research and management. Habitat regions were 
        digitally identified using visual interpretation of orthorectified 
        satellite imagery with a minimum mapping unit (MMU) of approximately 
        100 square meters (1/40 acre).
        
        A slightly different benthic habitat classification scheme was used 
        for the NWHI compared to the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) and other 
        regions across the Pacific (e.g., American Samoa, Guam, and CNMI). 
        While many classes are similar, they are not categorized as biological 
        cover types, geomorphological structure types, and geographic zones. 
        Instead, a hierarchical scheme was used to flexibly denote substrate 
        category (e.g., unconsolidated and hardbottom), structure (e.g., 
        linear reef or pavement), and cover (e.g., coral, coralline algae, or 
        macroalgae).
        
        A total of 45 detailed benthic habitat classes were identified within 
        the NWHI. For simplification and to more easily distinguish cover 
        types, these are presented in a set of 7 aggregated benthic habitat 
        classes including 5 hardbottom substrate classes (live coral, 
        coralline algae, macroalgae, uncolonized, and unknown biological 
        cover) and 2 unconsolidated substrate classes (macroalgae and 
        uncolonized). Query an aggregated polygon to get the detailed benthic 
        habitat classification at the clicked location.

      Abstract: 
        Benthic habitat maps for the nearshore, shallow (< 30 m) coastal 
        waters of Necker Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) 
        and the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument. NOAA's National 
        Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) produced these data to 
        support coral reef research and management. Habitat regions were 
        digitally identified using visual interpretation of orthorectified 
        satellite imagery with a minimum mapping unit (MMU) of approximately 
        100 square meters (1/40 acre).
        
        A slightly different benthic habitat classification scheme was used 
        for the NWHI compared to the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) and other 
        regions across the Pacific (e.g., American Samoa, Guam, and CNMI). 
        While many classes are similar, they are not categorized as biological 
        cover types, geomorphological structure types, and geographic zones. 
        Instead, a hierarchical scheme was used to flexibly denote substrate 
        category (e.g., unconsolidated and hardbottom), structure (e.g., 
        linear reef or pavement), and cover (e.g., coral, coralline algae, or 
        macroalgae).
        
        A total of 45 detailed benthic habitat classes were identified within 
        the NWHI. For simplification and to more easily distinguish cover 
        types, these are presented in a set of 7 aggregated benthic habitat 
        classes including 5 hardbottom substrate classes (live coral, 
        coralline algae, macroalgae, uncolonized, and unknown biological 
        cover) and 2 unconsolidated substrate classes (macroalgae and 
        uncolonized). Query an aggregated polygon to get the detailed benthic 
        habitat classification at the clicked location.

                Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service - Cached (WMS-C). 
                Use of WMS-C is similar to traditional WMS but with the 
                addition of the "tiled=true" parameter, which triggers 
                GeoServer to pull map tiles from GeoWebCache if they have been 
                previously generated. This can dramatically improve 
                performance, especially for larger datasets. Supported map 
                formats include JPEG and PNG. Supported info formats include 
                GeoJSON, GML, HTML, and plain text.
