Saltmarsh communities were identified by eye based on paced, compass orientated transects and mapped against a NCC commissioned basemap produced by the University of Glasgow. The saltmarsh community identification was supported by sample quadrats. Data collected by trained personnel, digitised by contractors, validated by CCW KMG, corrections made by contractors, validated again by CCW KMG, corrections made in-house in conjunction with relevant saltmarsh specialist. CCW commissioned survey which contributes to an NVC Saltmarsh survey collation (see 'part of' field).
