"This document is intended as a reference and provides guidelines for training and the analysis of images on CoralNet from surveys conducted by the Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP), Ecosystem Sciences Division of the NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC). The user documentation outlined in this report applies to the analysis of photoquadrat images collected by CREP and its partners in the coral reef ecosystems of about 40 primary islands, atolls, and shallows banks in the Hawaiian Archipelago (including the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument), the Mariana Archipelago (Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, including the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument), the Territory of American Samoa, and the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument (Wake, Johnston, Palmyra, and Kingman Atolls and Howland, Baker, and Jarvis Islands)"--Introduction. doi:10.7289/V5/AR-PIFSC-H-17-02 (https://doi.org/10.7289/V5/AR-PIFSC-H-17-02)]
