sformel-usgs commented 1 month ago

Dataset link: https://cims.coastal.la.gov/monitoring-data/

Region: Louisiana, USA (Gulf of Mexico)

Taxon: Wetland Vegetation

Type: Occurrence

Why is this important: This data is long-term monitoring of coastal wetland vegetation. It is a well-used dataset but, as far as I know, is not integrated into the biodiversity informatics world yet.

Priority: low

Comments: https://lacoast.gov/crms/ This data is hosted by USGS, and GBIF-US will work on this when we find some time.
