Coastal and Ocean Resources Inc (CORI), a marine geological and environmental consulting company based in Sidney B.C. and Dr. Audrey Dallimore, Royal Roads University, will collaborate to validate and perform the first field ground truthing of a new computerized Nearshore Habitat Mapping Model that CORI has had in product development for the past two years. An understanding of the spatial distribution of nearshore benthic (bottom) habitats in the marine environment is required to: implement ecosystem based fisheries management; assess species distribution and the recovery potential of species reduced from historic abundance; and understand sensitivities of species of interest for fisheries which may be impacted by future industrial development.

海岸和海洋资源公司(CORI)，一家总部位于不列颠哥伦比亚省悉尼的海洋地质和环境咨询公司，将与皇家道路大学的奥德丽·达利莫尔博士合作，验证和执行过去两年来CORI在产品开发中使用的新的计算机化近岸生境地图模型的第一个实地实况。需要了解近岸底栖(底层)生境在海洋环境中的空间分布，以便：实施基于生态系统的渔业管理；评估物种分布和从历史丰度减少的物种的恢复潜力；以及了解渔业感兴趣物种的敏感性，这些物种可能受到未来工业发展的影响。
