Title:	Ground Validation Transects (2012) in the U.S. Virgin Islands
Dataset Language:	eng; USA
Abstract:	This shapefile denotes the location of underwater photos and video transects taken between 10/23-10/31/12 in Fish Bay and Coral Bay, St. John and the St. Thomas East End Reserve (STEER) in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI). These locations were explored using an underwater camera because their habitat types were unknown. Points along these transects were used to develop a benthic habitat map for Fish Bay, Coral Bay and the St. Thomas East End Reserve (STEER) in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
