Los mapas se han empleado para representar la conformación topográfica de la formación arrecifal, los patrones de distribución de los corales y otras especies, como referentes para estudios de sucesión y para propósitos aplicados relacionados con programas de conservación y desarrollo sustentable. En este trabajo se presenta una propuesta metodológica de mapeo subacuático, aplicada a la comunidad arrecifal de Bahía San Agustín, Huatulco, Oaxaca, que puede ser utilizada en otros sitios del Pacífico Tropical Mexicano. El protocolo de mapeo consiste en cuatro fases generales: 1) planeación y organización; 2) levantamiento topográfico; 3) procesamiento de la información; y, 4) cartografía. Se obtuvieron dos mapas batimétricos, uno de representación bidimensional (2D) y otro tridimensional (3D), que muestran características del relieve complementarias.]]></p></abstract>

Maps have been used to represent topographical conformation of the reefs, distributional patterns of corals and other species, as referential for succession studies and for applied purposes related with conservation programs and sustainable development. In this study a methodological proposal of underwater mapping is presented, applied to the reef community of San Agustin Bay, Huatulco, Oaxaca, that can be used in other places of the Mexican Tropical Pacific. The mapping protocol consists of four general phases: 1) planning and organization; 2) topographical survey; 3) data processing; and, 4) cartography. Two bathymétrie maps were obtained, one two-dimensional representation (2D) and other three-dimensional (3D), showing complementary relief'features.]]></p></abstract>
