Description:
Abstract:
This data set represents oyster reef coverage around Tampa Bay. A combination of methodologies was employed on 2005 low tide true color imagery provided by the Galileo Group, Inc and 2004 DOQQ's. Visual Learning Systems software, Feature Analyst and photo interpretation was used to ascertain oyster reef coverage in the Bay area.
Purpose:
The objective of this mapping exercise was to establish a baseline map layer for the current extent of oysters within Tampa Bay. This effort provides the base data source for future mapping projects and enables trend analyses to be performed to aid scientists in their monitoring efforts.
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.
