Summary

This data provides information for CNLM biologists to track trends in population of sensitive species found at our preserves. It also provides informatiion required by local HCPs and fulfills reporting requirements.

Description

This dataset represents sensitive plant data collected on Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM) dedicated nature preserves in San Diego County, California. Data included were collected by CNLM staff and their subcontractors. Most data was collected during focused surveys for plant species, but some are anecdotal sitings. Shrubs were generally located, and then GPS points were taken and later updated into GIS layers. In some cases, such as annual forbs, we estimated the number of individuals, or pin flagged all individuals to get accurate counts. Some data were collected using field maps and then transferred to GIS. Preserves were dedicated during different years, please call CNLM if you want information regarding year of preserve dedication.

Supplemental information
DATA COMPILATION HISTORY This datalayer was compiled and developed for BIOS as part of the Southern California Data Integration Project. Point feature class data maintained by CNLM were buffered to 3 meters to account for the accuracy of the GPS units and merged with polygon feature class data. CNLM sensitive wildlife observations are also available for viewing in a separate datalayer. SPATIAL DATA COLLECTION Some data that is shown outside preserve limits is generally pre-construction data collected by biological consulting firms or slight plotting or reprojection errors. The larger polygon feature class data represent species that are located in dense vegetation or rugged terrain, and represents an assumption of spatial distribution and abundance. In some cases polygons are drawn around a species distribution and an exact number of individuals are counted. In general, CNLM works in UTM, zone 11N, NAD 83, meters. However, our subcontractors have worked in various coordinate systems and we have reprojected their data to our system. From about 2000 to 2005, CNLM worked with ArcView 3.2. In about 2005, we moved to ArcView 9.1. All data have been compiled by Markus Spiegelberg.
