    • Mapping Data of Eelgrass (Zostera marina) Distribution, Baja California, Mexico

    Metadata Updated: February 22, 2025

    Provided here are three vector geospatial datasets that characterize the distribution of (1) eelgrass (Zostera marina), (2) salt marshes, and (3) mangroves in three bays along the west coast of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico (Bahia San Quintin, Laguna Ojo de Liebre, and Laguna San Ignacio). These data were derived from satellite imagery (Landsat 5 TM) acquired on three different days (1992-09-05, 1999-03-24, 2000-05-11). After pre-processing, imagery was classified into land cover categories. The habitat distribution data were then extracted from the raster grid and converted to vector data.
