MNA regularly performs coral surveys at multiple locations around the island. These surveys allow comparisons over time of coral health, assessment of fish species and totals, and just a general summary of the reef health. In addition to photos, a 3D model is created of each survey, again to allow visual feedback of any changes over time. The map below shows a few of the surveys in Hanaka‘ape Bay. In total, there are more than 50 survey locations in this bay alone.
