Hydroacoustic surveys will be undertaken at four representative locations along the west coast of the Dampier Peninsula and Gourdon Bay to capture high resolution bathymetry and geo-referenced seabed bottom types for the production of bathymetric maps. An underwater videographic survey will then be undertaken to identify the benthic communites at the key functional group level and to produce geo-referenced benthic habitat maps.
