Noaa Emergency Response Program

NOAA’S NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE (area of detail, above) S afe Sanctuaries 2005 (SS2005) will exercise NOAA emergency response capabilities on March 15-17, and April 20-21 in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS. NOAA's Beechcraft King Air 350 CER supports the National Geodetic Survey's (NGS) Coastal Mapping Program, part of NGS's Remote Sensing Division, and conducts aerial photography in support of emergency response efforts.

More About the Oil Analysis Program - Satellite Products and Services Division. Monitoring the Oceans for Oil Spills. The Satellite Analysis Branch of NOAA/NESDIS has been working since December 2. NOAA. Since then, other customers have been added to the oil mapping distribution list that include the US Coast Guard, the Bureaus of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE). The Marine Pollution Surveillance Program consists of manual detection and mapping of oil slicks primarily through the use of available moderate to high resolution multispectral imagery such as MODIS (NASA) and FORMOSAT- 2 (NSPO) , but occasionally even space- based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), such as RADARSAT- 2 (Canadian).

SAR imagery has proven to be a useful tool in capturing oil slicks because it depicts the wave- suppression that oil creates on the sea surface, provides wide spatial coverage, and works day or night. Mission Objectives. Provide satellite- based analyses for oil spill incidences declared by NOS ERDRoutinely monitor for any anomalous features in satellite imagery that are believed to be oil from man- made spills and report findings to NOS, USCG, and BOEMRE. To the right is an image was taken from NASA’s MODIS Aqua satellite of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on May 2. Gulf of Mexico. What is the Marine Pollution Surveillance Report? The Marine Pollution Surveillance Report is issued by SAB satellite analysts when “anomalies” or man- made oil slicks are suspected to be observed in satellite imagery.
