Hello Evan,

 

When calculating fetch in the past, we had good luck with the R fetchR package (on GitHub here). It looks like (here) that the package may no longer be maintained, but archive versions are available. I would guess that if you have some ability with R, you could get it working. I hope that helps!

 

Best regards,

 

Jason

Hello,

 

My name is Evan Trotzuk, and I'm working in Bazaruto Archipelago National Park in Mozambique. I am attempting to predict seagrass distribution using satellite imagery. While I have a robust classifier, I am impeded by a lack of reliable wave energy and wind fetch rasters, which have obvious oceanographic effects and clearly dictate the distribution of seagrass in my study area.

 

I would like to know if you have any recommendations for open-source tools that I may be able to use to generate even rough estimates of these parameters in a raster format throughout my study area. I have reliable wind data, bathymetry, and landmass data, but cannot identify a currently functional tool that would allow me to achieve this result.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

 

All the best,
