This data is part of the 2013 report "Synthesis of seagrass mapping studies" conducted by the Water Science Branch of the Department of Water. Surveys were conducted by the WA Department of Water together with Geoscience Australia. The objective of these surveys was to collect baseline data on seagrass composition and distribution in key estuaries of southern and south-western WA. This data was acquired by the ACEAS Seagrass Group as part of the 2013 Australia-wide risk assessment of Seagrass. The datasets making up the Wellstead Estuary seagrass survey data are: WA_Wellstead_SAV_sites - point dataset of species presence/absence and survey methodology at each site. WA_Wellstead_SAV_polygons - polygon dataset showing interpolated percentage cover in polygons derived from site points.
