    A smiling person wearing an orange life vest and gray long-sleeve shirt leans over the side of a boat, holding a white flat object (likely a Secchi disk or sampling plate) just at the water's surface. Water is visibly dripping from the object as it is being retrieved from the ocean. The setting appears to be open ocean during golden hour lighting conditions.

The survey mapped the nearshore coast offshore of Fort Hase beach to help predict coastal erosion. The USGS Center is working in conjunction with the University of Hawaii in a 5 year project to provide data of the sea floor to help UH place artificial and living coral reefs that will promote sea life growth in the area.

    A field research team from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is conducting operations aboard a research vessel on calm open water. Three individuals are visible: one operating the boat from an elevated helm station, and two others working on the rear deck area. The setting appears to be near a coastal landmass, photographed during golden hour lighting.
    Two people are on a boat on open water, appearing to have a conversation or discussion. The person on the right, wearing an orange life vest and gray long-sleeve shirt, is gesturing and pointing toward the other person. The scene is lit with warm golden light suggesting either sunrise or sunset.
    Two individuals are on a small research vessel on open water near a green, mountainous island. One person wearing a USGS t-shirt sits on the boat's edge while another in an orange life vest leans forward pointing toward the water. The scene appears to be a field research or survey operation, likely conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey.
    Three individuals wearing life vests are working on a small research vessel over open water, handling scientific equipment. The personnel are affiliated with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), as indicated by text visible on their clothing and life vests. They appear to be deploying or retrieving a piece of oceanographic or survey instrument mounted on the side of the boat.
    Two individuals wearing life vests are leaning over the side of a boat, appearing to conduct fieldwork or research over open water. One person is holding a pole or instrument while the other points toward the water surface. The setting suggests a scientific or survey operation at sea.
    A smiling person wearing an orange life vest and gray long-sleeve shirt leans over the side of a boat, holding a white flat object (likely a Secchi disk or sampling plate) just at the water's surface. Water is visibly dripping from the object as it is being retrieved from the ocean. The setting appears to be open ocean during golden hour lighting conditions.
    A person wearing a life jacket and dark beanie is leaning over the side of a boat toward the water, possibly assisting someone or retrieving something. The scene is set on open ocean during golden hour, with strong sun flare visible from the upper right. The setting and life jacket suggest a maritime rescue or assistance operation.
    Three individuals are working on the stern of a research vessel on open water, appearing to handle scientific equipment. One person is wearing a USGS (U.S. Geological Survey) t-shirt, and two others are wearing orange life vests marked with 'U.S. Geological Survey.' Green, hilly coastline is visible in the background under partly cloudy skies.
    An older man with a white beard is piloting a boat along a coastline with green hills visible in the background. He is wearing a bucket hat with a palm tree pattern, blue sunglasses, and a light gray long-sleeve shirt bearing a circular logo that reads 'Coral Reef Program' with nature imagery. The scene appears to be taken during golden hour light, suggesting early morning or late afternoon.
    A person on a boat is handling scuba diving equipment, specifically attaching or adjusting a Garmin dive computer/regulator to a scuba tank. The individual is wearing a black wristwatch and light-colored clothing, with open water visible in the background. The scene appears to be pre-dive preparation aboard a dive boat.
    A man sits on the edge of a boat on calm blue water, preparing what appears to be scuba diving equipment. He is wearing a red inflatable life vest, a gray baseball cap, and a light blue t-shirt. A green island or headland is visible in the background under a clear blue sky.
    A scuba diver in full gear sits on the edge of a small white boat, appearing to prepare for or return from a dive. The diver is wearing a black wetsuit with teal accents and has a scuba tank mounted on their back. The setting appears to be a calm, blue ocean with mountainous coastline visible in the background, consistent with a Hawaiian location.
    A woman in full scuba diving gear is seated on a boat, adjusting her diving mask in preparation for a dive. She is wearing a wetsuit, BCD (buoyancy control device), and has a scuba tank mounted on her back. The setting appears to be open ocean with islands or rocky outcroppings visible in the background.
    A scuba diver is floating at the surface of open blue water, raising one fist in the air in a celebratory or signaling gesture. The diver is wearing full scuba gear including a black wetsuit, BCD (buoyancy control device), regulator, and a teal/turquoise diving mask. The water is calm and clear blue, suggesting open ocean or sea conditions.
    A diver is floating at the surface of open water, with their head above the waterline. They are wearing a black neoprene wetsuit hood and clear diving mask/goggles. The water appears calm with gentle ripples and has a blue-green color consistent with open sea or large body of water.
    An ASUS monitor displays NORBIT bathymetric sonar software actively recording underwater survey data. The screen shows a multibeam sonar swath profile in the upper panel and backscatter intensity imagery in the lower panel, with a second monitor partially visible on the right showing a bathymetric map. The setup appears to be part of a marine survey operation with multiple cables connected to the workstation.
    A person wearing an orange safety/life vest with 'GEOLOGICAL' text visible and a green bucket hat is working at a multi-monitor computer workstation aboard what appears to be a research or survey vessel. The screens display mapping, sonar, or bathymetric data software, suggesting active field data collection or survey operations. The setting is the interior cabin of a boat with windows showing a hazy water environment outside.
    A U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) field worker is operating scientific equipment on a boat in a coastal marine environment. She is wearing an orange USGS life vest and a green sun hat while handling what appears to be a pole-mounted instrument or sensor array. The background shows a mountainous tropical coastline consistent with Hawaii.
    Two individuals wearing U.S. Geological Survey orange life vests are working on scientific equipment mounted on a pole aboard a boat on open water. They appear to be adjusting or securing instrumentation, including what appears to be a GPS/survey antenna and associated cabling. The setting appears to be a coastal bay area with green mountainous terrain visible in the background, consistent with a Hawaiian landscape.
    Two female researchers wearing U.S. Geological Survey life vests are conducting fieldwork from a boat on open water. One researcher is handling a Trimble GPS/survey antenna while the other operates additional electronic equipment mounted on the vessel. A mountainous coastline is visible in the background, suggesting a tropical or subtropical location.
