Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Biological interpretation re-created through on-screen
digitizing using USGS Digital Raster Graphics of the USGS
paper quadrangles as a backdrop using approximately a 2x magnification factor

Process_Date: 1995

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Biological interpretation refined where appropriate by clipping
the use area boundaries to a digital coastline product digitized
by USGS-WRD of Long Island from 1981 NY DOT 1:24000 mylar quad
sheets

Process_Date: 1995

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Use areas for which the digital coastline features were clearly
out of date (the four major inlets of the South Shore of Long Island) were
refined on a case-by-case basis using USGS April 1994 NAPP color
infrared aerial photography (original scale 1:40000)
