Allen Coral Atlas
The Allen Coral Atlas aims to provide high-spatial and thematic resolution, up-to-date global maps of the world’s coral reefs, and a monitoring system to track changes in coral reefs over time. These and other emerging products of the Allen Coral Atlas support coral reef science, management, conservation, and policy around the world. The Atlas builds on satellite imagery and analytics supported by data on marine heatwaves, turbidity, wave modelling and other indicators. It also allows for the mapping of seagrass, microalgal mats and other resources. It comes with a detection tool that tracks coral bleaching events in near real time. The Allen Coral Atlas was conceived and funded by Vulcan Inc. and brings together a team comprising of members from The Arizona State University Center for Global Discovery and Conservation Science, Earth-imaging company Planet and partners at the University of Queensland and the Coral Reef Alliance.
