Description:
Abstract:
The British Columbia Marine Conservation Analysis (BCMCA) is a collaborative project assembling and analyzing spatial information about Canada's Pacific Ocean. The overall goal of the BCMCA is to identify marine areas of high conservation value and marine areas important to human use. Results of the project are intended to inform and help advance marine planning initiatives in BC by providing collaborative, peer-reviewed scientific analyses based on the best ecological and human use spatial data at scales relevant to a BC coast-wide analysis.
Purpose:
The purpose of this dataset is to incorporate all near shore data identifying Blue-winged Teal winter sites (December, January, February), process and summarize weighted densities by BCMCA planning unit to help inform the marine feature identified at the BCMCA Seabirds Workshop.
Supplemental_Information:
This dataset is a compilation of data collected by many people, for different purposes, using different survey techniques with different methodologies within each technique and, therefore, considerable care must be taken when using the data, even for site-specific inquiries. Refer to the original metadata document for data limitations and usage. Title or link is provided within source information. Data was collected, merged and buffered (if applicable) by target feature layer using the following data sources: 1.Bird Studies Canada (BSC) BC Coastal Waterbirds Survey (BCCWS_polygons.shp). 2.BCMCA Planning Units (dfo_bc_2K_4K_combined.shp).

Bird Studies Canada (BSC) BC Coastal Waterbirds Survey. Dataset name: BCCWS_polygons.shp. Metadata document: Coastal Waterbird Survey summary metadata March 2007.doc. Volunteer-based monitoring program for coastal waterbirds started in September 1999. The monthly surveys are shoreline-based for the period of September through April. Observers undertake surveys at sites with clearly defined boundaries once per month from September through April, and identify and count all coastal waterbirds with binoculars and/or spotting scope. Purpose is to obtain a relative index of coastal waterbird populations and information on the distribution and ecology of wintering coastal waterbirds in BC. Dataset supplied includes spatial layer. All bird occurrences and counts stored in a raw data format and included within excel spreadsheet; approx 75,000 records. Bird occurrences are documented by site location, rather than individual sighting locations and can be joined to spatial polygon data via SiteCode. Refer to original metadata document (listed above) for more information regarding survey background, methodology and data limitations.

Dataset name: BIEAP_Subsectors_Albers.shp. Tables: Max_Month_Subsector_Taxo.tbl Metadata Document: BIEAP_1993_1994_DatabaseMetadata.doc Extent: English Bay, Burrard Inlet, and Indian Arm. The Goal of this dataset was to analyse and summarize ~15000 sightings of more than 100 bird species collected 1993 to 1995 (second half of data collected was omitted due to differing observational methodology). Counts were from observers traversing shoreline by boat, bike or car with binoculars or spotting telescopes. The data consists of counts stored in an access database, and corresponding polygonal shapefiles divided into sectors and subsectors that can be cross referenced to the count data in the access database. Observation locations were added to pre-made polygons along the shore of the study area.

>Prepared BC Coastal Waterbirds Survey dataset: 
Imported excel worksheets "BCCWS raw data 1, raw data 2, raw data 3" from Coastal Waterbird Survey data '99-'08.xls into a geodatabase. To join tables to spatial, created new field, SITECODE, in all 3 tables. Using field calculator, populated SITECODE field with following formula: [RegionCode]& [SiteNumber]. Create one field storing date (ymd) rather than 3 fields. Populated field using field calculator with the following formula: [Year_]&"/"& [Month_]&"/"& [Day_]. To combine all 3 tables into one table, used the Append tool and appended raw data 2 and raw data 3 to raw data 1 table. Deleted "Year_" Month_" and "Day_" fields using Delete Field tool. Added 3 new fields using Add Field tool: Feature, Data_Source, Dataset_ID. Populated fields using Calculate Field tool. Feature field calculated to equal the SpeciesCode field. Standardized the Feature field naming convention to equal the common name of the marine species rather than the abbreviated species code. Data_Source field calculated to equal the name of the dataset from which data was derived. Dataset_ID field calculated to equal the common dataset identifier as categorized by BCMCA.

Process_Description:
Re-projected spatial layer from NAD 1983 Albers to NAD 1983 BC Environment Albers using Project tool. All polygons with the same Sitecode were merged so that there were no duplications in the Sitecode field. To ensure areas matched in both the spatial and the survey data, the total shape area in the spatial was summed where duplicate Sitecodes and cross-checked with area recorded in corresponding SiteCode records in raw excel data. Once the areas were verified, duplicate polygons were merged using merge operation (Advanced Editor toolbar) into one and Name field updated to reflect entire survey location. Duplicate SiteCode records were found in GIMA1 (3 records), GIMA2 (4 records), GISE1 (2 records), and QCMA4 (2 records).
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Using MS Access query, selected all records within raw data table where SpeciesCode = ' AMWI', 'BWTE', 'EUWI', 'GADW', 'GWTE', 'MALL' with survey months >11 or <3 and exported into individual feature tables. To calculate the total number of surveys, two queries were created using Microsoft Access. The first query was created to record all instances of survey dates meeting the features' winter specifications within each survey polygon (i.e. each date instance was assigned a value of 1), grouped and ordered by polygon. To eliminate duplicate counts (i.e. each species recorded has a survey date), only the first date instance was assigned a value of one. The second query was created to count and sum all date instances within each grouped polygon.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
For each SiteCode, summarized each feature table to get the average bird counts. Included the number of surveys in which the species was sighted and the total number of survey tables. Joined feature tables to spatial using SiteCode field and exported into feature classes. Added a new field, Season, and calculated to equal the season in which the feature is identified as specified by BCMCA. Note: a few records in the aspatial table did not have matching SiteCodes within the spatial layer. Deleted all unnecessary fields using Delete Fields tool.

<<Prepared Coastal Waterbird Inventory Survey dataset: Using MS Access query, selected all records within cwidat_bc table where SPECIES = 'AMWI', 'BWTE', 'EUWI', 'GADW', 'GWTE', 'MALL' , 'NOPI' and 'NOSL' with survey months >11 Or <3. Since the WIN field within CWI dataset does not necessarily correlate with BCMCA specified "winter" months, used the DATE field in query rather than season field. Exported selected species into individual feature tables.

Process_Description:
Re-projected cwi_bc.shp from PCS Albers to NAD 1983 BC Environment Albers using Project tool. Related 2 survey tables (cwilut_bc/cwidat_bc) to spatial, and extracted all spatial lines correlating to target feature into a separate feature class. Reviewed Digitized field and where "F2", spatial lines were merged according to each unique combination of SHOREUNITS2 field to create a one-to-one relationship with the survey data. New fields were created (UNIQUEID, NEWID) in order to provide a link to the corresponding survey data. Where applicable, all null and non-spatially linked shoreunits in the feature tables were deleted in order to maintain the same record count in both the spatial and table (refer to associated text file listing null and non-spatially linked records). Joined feature table to spatial layer using NEWID field and exported to a feature class. è Added 5 new fields using Add Field tool: Season, Feature, DATA_SOURCE, Dataset_ID and Buffer_m. Populated fields using Calculate Field tool. Season field calculated to equal the season in which the feature is identified as specified by BCMCA. Feature field calculated to equal common name of the marine feature as identified within the COMNAME field. DATA_SOURCE calculated to equal the name of the dataset from which data was derived. Dataset_ID field calculated to equal the common dataset identifier as categorized by BCMCA. Buffer field calculated based on Survey_Method used: 50m radius (ground, air, and unknown surveys), 150m radius (boat surveys). Buffered shorelines using Buffer tool based on Buffer field. Deleted un-necessary fields using Delete Field tool.

<<Prepared CRD dataset: Prepared Year_Round_Calcs excel spreadsheet within Biird_S_Graphs.xls and imported to a geodatabase table. Re-formatted Date_field to string and (yyyy/mm/dd) format. Using Microsoft Access query, selected all Species equal to 'AMWI', 'EUWI', 'GWTE', 'MALL' and exported to individual feature tables. To calculate the total number of surveys, two queries were created. The first query was created to record all instances of survey dates meeting the features' winter specifications within each polygon (i.e. each date instance was assigned a value of 1), and then grouped and ordered by polygon. To eliminate duplicate counts (i.e. each species recorded has a survey date), only the first date instance was assigned a value of one. The second query was created to count and sum all date instances within each grouped polygon. A similar query to the above was used to calculate the surveys in which species were sighted. In some cases, data was recorded within a polygon on the same survey date, usually when there was more than one observer. In these cases, only the first unique survey date was given a count value of one to avoid redundant survey counts and for consistency with the total surveys count.

Re-projected Bird_surveys_polygons from NAD 1983 UTM Zone 10N to NAD 1983 BC Environment Albers using Project tool. For each polygon, summarized feature tablea by average bird counts. Included total species sighted and total number of survey tables. Added 4 new fields using Add Field tool: Season, Feature, Data_Source, Dataset_ID. Populated fields using Calculate field tool. Season field calculated to equal the season in which the feature is identified as specified by BCMCA. Feature field calculated to equal the common name of the marine species as identified within the Species field. Data_Source field calculated to equal the name of the dataset from which the data was derived. Dataset_ID field calculated to equal the common dataset identifier as categorized by BCMCA. Joined feature tables to spatial layer using Poly field in spatial and Polygon field in table and exported to a feature class. Deleted unnecessary field using Delete Field tool.

Using MS Access query, selected all records within tblBirds where species = 'AMWI', ''GWTE', 'MALL' with survey months <11 or <3 and exported to individual feature tables. Included the number of surveys in which the species was sighted and the total number of surveys for that area in that time period. To calculate the total number of surveys, two queries were created using Microsoft Access. The first query was created to record all instances of survey dates meeting the features' winter specifications on each transect (i.e. each date instance was assigned a value of 1), and then grouped and ordered by transect. To eliminate duplicate counts (i.e. each species recorded has a survey date), only the first date instance was assigned a value of one. The second query was created to count and sum all date instances within each grouped transect. A similar query to the above was used to calculate the surveys in which species were sighted. In some cases, data was recorded in various time intervals along a transect on a given survey date. In these cases, only the first unique survey date was given a count value of one to avoid redundant survey counts and for consistency with the total surveys count.

For each TRANSCT_ID, summarized data to display average bird counts for all months/years. Added 3 fields using Add Field tool: Feature, Data_Source, Dataset_ID. Populated fields using Calculate field tool. Feature field calculated to equal the common name of the marine feature identified within the Species field. DATA_SOURCE calculated to equal the name of the dataset from which data was derived. Dataset_ID field calculated to equal the common dataset identifier as categorized by BCMCA. Joined feature table to spatial line layer (qwcsln_vi_rz.shp) using TRANSCT_ID field and exported to a feature class. Note: One record in the tblBirds did not have matching Transect ID in spatial. Buffered lines by 50m (radius). Note: original line work likely not cleaned, some overshoots (bends) and splits occur. Flat end buffer types do not handle bends/splits as it creates small triangles.
