Details

This function creates the flagship seagrass coverage graphic to report on coverage changes over time. All data were pre-processed and included in the package as the seagrass dataset. Original data are from the Southwest Florida Water Management District and available online at https://data-swfwmd.opendata.arcgis.com/. This function and the data used to create the plot are distinct from those used for the transect monitoring program.
