- Abstract:
-
The Breeding Bird Atlas (BBA II) project is a collaborative effort between the Audubon of Florida, the Florida Ornithological Society, and the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission. Many participants, most of them volunteers, were involved in conducting surveys and compiling data.
- Purpose:
-
Determine breeding bird distributions throughout the State of Florida
- Supplemental_Information:
-
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.

- Use_Constraints:
-
These data should be distributed as a package with the related feature class, tables, and/or relationship classes as a file geodatabase.
Acknowledgement of the FWC-FWRI (Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission-Fish and Wildlife Research Institute) as the data source would be appreciated in any products developed from these data, and such acknowledgment as is standard for citation and legal practices for data source is expected by users of this data. Please cite the original metadata when using portions of the record to create a similar record of slightly altered data, such as reprojection. If any data are modified or adjusted, please share the edited information with FWC. Users should be aware that comparison with other data sets for the same area from other time periods may be inaccurate due to inconsistencies resulting from changes in mapping conventions, data collection, and computer processes over time.

- Process_Description:
-
Breeding Bird Atlas quad boundaries were downloaded from the BBA Explorer GIS data download page. Some quads had to be added for which there were bird observation data, and were copied and pasted from a USGS quad boundaries shapefile. After removing unneeded fields, the data were linked via the USGS ID field to database tables created from the download 2011 - 2016 bird observations.
