Seabed classification | Space4Water Portal

“Classification is a means for seafloor habitat data to be collated and grouped into meaningful and consistent categories.
In the marine environment, seafloor mapping and the application of a consistent, robust classification is the essential foundation on which to build the tools required for effective marine management.” (Seamap Australia, n.d.)
