Description: The 2024 distribution of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) in Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries was mapped from aerial multispectral digital imagery and satellite imagery. The aerial imagery was acquired between May and October 2024, with a resolution of 24 cm, encompassing 189 flight lines. Due to a number of challenges, additional imagery was acquired from Maxar, SpaceWill, and Planet Labs in order to provide a more complete dataset for Chesapeake Bay. These imagery sources and their locations are detailed below:Aerial imagery was not acquired for portions of the Honga and Nanticoke Rivers and Fishing Bay. WorldView 2 satellite imagery acquired from Maxar through the NGA NextView program and PlanetScope satellite imagery from Planet Labs were used to map these areas.Due to late imagery acquisition, SuperView Neo 1 imagery from SpaceWill and PlanetScope satellite imagery from Planet Labs were used to supplement the aerial imagery for the upper Potomac River, including Nanjemoy Creek. PlanetScope imagery was also used to supplement the aerial imagery for the Pamunkey and upper Rappahannock Rivers and WorldView 2 satellite imagery acquired from Maxar through the NGA NextView program was used to supplement the aerial imagery for the Big Annemessex, Manokin, and Little Choptank Rivers, and Pocomoke and Tangier Sounds, as well as the Chesapeake Bay Eastern Shore from Hungars Creek to Onancock Creek.Due to turbid conditions, WorldView 2 satellite imagery acquired from Maxar through the NGA NextView program was used to supplement the aerial imagery for the Corrotoman, Piankatank, and lower Rappahannock Rivers, and Mobjack Bay.WorldView 2 satellite imagery acquired from Maxar through the NGA NextView program was used to supplement the aerial imagery for the Back, Bush, Gunpowder, Middle, Patapsco, and Sassafras Rivers, and the Susquehanna Flats
