- Description:
-
- Abstract:
-
This shapefile contains point features summarizing statewide observations for the western brook lamprey, Lampetra richardsoni. This coverage was created by the Zoology program of the Alaska Natural Heritage Program, Anchorage, AK. Points were assembled from a variety of sources including published literature, unpublished literature, and online museum specimen databases. The data represent a wide variety of sources collected over many years and therefore precision and accuracy vary within the data. This coverage was intended to depict a comprehensive assemblage of observations of this species along with locational information. Many locations required transcription of textual descriptions from literature to a statewide basemap.
- Purpose:
-
This dataset is intended to describe the current known observations of the western brook lamprey, Lampetra richardsoni, in Alaska. This information was developed in association with efforts to describe life history and distribution of species featured in Alaska's Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy, which was prepared by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and reviewed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

- Process_Description:
-
All fish observations were assembled from a variety of sources and evaluated by program zoologists for data accuracy and quality. Excel software was used to assemble observation data tables. These database files were transfered to ArcGIS software and x,y coordinates in each table were used to create a point feature coverage. The resulting shapefiles were displayed over various basemaps to check general locational accuracy and the shapefile was reprojected into Alaska Albers projection (NAD83).
