Digital Coast

Details

• Developed in close cooperation with state and local partners to ensure a high degree of accuracy and applicability
• Classified according to the Florida System for Classification of Habitats in Estuarine and Marine Environments (SCHEME)
• Collected using the RoxAnn Groundmaster system
• Collected along transect lines oriented to cover the project area or to cross transition zones across habitats
• Interpreted based on acoustic signals and calibrated with ground observations

Notes and Limitations: RoxAnn data are normally collected through transect sampling. The data are collected in a systematic pattern distributed through the project area and require some interpolation to generate a comprehensive data set. Interpolations of these data should be used with caution due to potentially large, non-sampled areas that are present within the output data. Users are encouraged to develop or obtain higher-detail data for non-sampled areas within an interpolated output.
