Barbuda Benthic Habitat Map for Marine Spatial Planning

This shapefile represents simplified benthic marine habitats of Barbuda created for the purposes of marine spatial planning in Barbuda (the Barbuda Blue Halo Initiative) in 2013. Maps were generated from remote sensed imagery with a Projection of WGS 84 and UTM Zone 20N. Data are suitable for resource assessment, spatial analyses and the development of geographic information systems (GIS) for planning and environmental management type applications.
