Quantitative Plant Inventory at Big Cypress National Preserve in 2002-2004 - Open Format Dataset (Public)
A quantitative plant inventory was conducted between the years of 2002 and 2004 by the Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) on the 295,100 ha Big Cypress National Preserve in southern Florida. The goal of the study was to document at least 90% of plant taxa in the preserve. Abundance was measured on three hundred, 1 km x 1 km, sample stations; two, 250 m, transects per station; intercept points spaced 2.5 m along transects; as well as sixty, 500 m, roadside belt transects. 1094 unique plant taxa, both previously known and unknown, were documented. The data has been processed for dissemination by the Inverntory and Monitoring Division (IMD), complying with Executive Order 13642, Making Open and Machine Readable the New Default for Government Information (GPO 2013). Four tabular datasets have been created using the raw data provided from the park, following Darwin Core naming standards and introducing data quality flagging where data was missing or unclear.
