The project aimed to develop local capacity to undertake comprehensive marine resource assessments of Anguilla’s ‘Blue-Belt’, delivering best practice guidance for combining satellite and acoustic surveys, to extend mapping into deeper waters for the first time.

The MBES system was mounted to the bow of a local vessel chartered for the project. Data collection began in September 2016 and continued for 2 weeks with data being collected in both Road Bay and Crocus Bay. The data collected covered the majority of both of the bays and included a large area of the deeper water to the west of Sandy Island which had not been surveyed previously. The raw MBES data was processed by surveyors from the UKHO and Cefas during the survey to ensure data quality standards were being met. Data underwent post-survey processing by Cefas in FMGT. Processed data was gridded to 2 m. MEDIN 3.1.1
