Article Synopsis
- Coral reefs are vital ecosystems, hosting nearly 25% of marine species and providing food for half a billion people, yet only a small fraction has been studied.
- Advances in technology, like affordable underwater cameras and software, allow for comprehensive community-driven surveys and monitoring of coral reefs using low-cost tools.
- The proposed method generates detailed 3D models of coral colonies, enabling efficient measurement and analysis of coral health and structure, while fostering community participation in ecological research.
