- Statement
- Quadrat locations were taken from GPS readings collected during the CBESS survey programme (OSGB coordinates). Rasterised Digital Terrain Model data at 5 and 50 m horizontal resolution was downloaded from Edina Digimap (Edina.ac.uk), and elevation values at quadrat locations were extracted using R (www.r-project.org; Raster/Maptools packages). Tidal range at relevant Admiralty Standard Ports and adjustment applicable at relevant local tidal gauge were identified, and Mean Low Water Springs and Mean High Water Springs were converted to Ordnance Datum. Tidal height (elevation relative to the difference between Mean Low Water Springs and Mean High Water Springs) was computed at each quadrat for GPS and DTM derived elevations. Saltmarsh and mudflat boundary data were downloaded from the Environment Agency and Natural England Priority Habitats Inventory. Mean High Water line was extracted from Ordnance Survey Boundary Line data, and land edge from Ordnance Survey Vector Map data. Line shapefiles were converted to rasters with 5 and 50 m horizontal resolution (matching OS DTM grid) using R. Distance to creek edge and high water line (saltmarsh only), and land edge (mudflat only) was calculated in R using 5 m resolution rasterised shapefiles.
