Georeferencing Remarks Georeferencing details copied from donor into FoTX fields | Georef remarks: Moved original georeference point from center of county to coast. Species data reflects presence of obligate marine species in lot therefore, chances that specimens were collected in coastal waters are far greater than them have been collected inland.;
Georeferencing Annotation
Has not been Georeferenced because This record, being part of the track 3 import, is not formally georeferenced by FoTX staff at this time. However, to allow mapping and visualization of this record, locality information has been provisionally accepted if provided by the donor or if location text could be matched to previously georeferenced records by FoTX team or donor data. For many records spatial error is either accepted from the donor (when provided) or derived based on coordinate precision.
