Statement

Maps of the study area and associated survey data were created with ArcMap 10.2 while maps of the prescribed survey area, survey track-lines and coordinates were obtained from DHLGH. Data concerning transects, effort, sightings, abundance and density were stored in a single MS Access database, which was queried and processed via GIS to produce sighting distribution maps.
