1 Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) over the North Slope of Alaska, USA JHC/CCOM NOAA/NOS/OCS/MCD

2 Charting Issues with the North Slope 2 (www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/docs /Arctic_Nautical_Charting_Plan.pdf) Images from: Arctic Nautical Charting Plan – a plan to sustainable marine charting transportation in Alaska (Feb. 15, 2013) Barrow, AK Alaska

12 Reference depth measurements 12 Digitized soundings

13 Landsat 7 results (Acquisition date : July 18, 2002) Extinction depth: 4.5 m (15 ft) 60 km30150 4.5 m 0 m Turbidity? Ice

14 WV-2 results (Acquisition date: July 21, 2010 through August 10, 2010) Extinction depth: 3.9 m (13 ft) Extinction depth: 4.3 m (14 ft) Turbidity? 9 km 18 km

15 Chart 16082 (Scale 1:47,943) NOAA Chart 16081 (scale 1:48,149) Comparison to the chart soundings (WV-2) Absolute depth difference ±6 m 0 m

17 Scatter plots of the differences (WV-2) 17 Statistics (  4.3 m ): Mean = -0.95 m Standard deviation = 0.81 m Statistics (  4.3 m ): Mean = -0.49 m Standard deviation = 0.64 m Extinction Depth (4.3 m)

18 September 06, 2002 August 15, 2000 August 31, 2000August 11, 2013 Multiple image procedure (Landsat 8)

19 Histogram Matching Reference image (September 06, 2002). Original histogram (August 11, 2013)Matched histogram (August 11, 2013) 1. The histograms of the other images were matched to the reference histogram. Mean: 1.1211 Standard deviation: 0.0269 Mean: 1.1211 Standard deviation: 0.0269Mean: 1.0136 Standard deviation: 0.0041

20 Difference images (algorithm results) 2. Areas with small difference values (minor changes) between the different images were extracted for further processing. 3. Also, polygon shapefile feature of the extracted areas were generated (manually) based on the density of the available area for further processing.

21 Merging all pairs into one dataset 4. Six dataset were produced from the four available images (three pairs). All the dataset were merged into one dataset. 5. The data set was referenced to the chart datum. Sep 06, 2002 – Aug 15, 2000 Sep 06, 2002 – Aug 11, 2013 Sep 06, 2002 – Aug 31, 2000 Aug 15, 2000 – Aug 31, 2000 Aug 15, 2000– Aug 11, 2013 Aug 31, 2000– Aug 11, 2013

22 Final result Bathymetry derived from Landsat 7 and Landsat 8 imagery over the north slopes

23 Statistical analysis Extinction Depth (4.3 m)

24 Incorporating (Summer) 2014 Landsat 8 imagery in order to increase the coverage of the area. Comparison of SDB depth estimates to NOAA Charts – Identify apparent chart discrepancies – Target areas for field work Focus resources to areas of interest (e.g., WV-2). Investigate other promising applications in US waters. – Highly changeable areas – Challenging survey environments Next steps
