VCR LTER Global Positioning System Projects 1992 to 2004

This dataset is a compendium of GPS Data collected by Randy Carlson and collaborators on the Virginia Coast Reserve (primarily), Plum Island and North Inlet. A master data table was extracted by Charles L. Carlson during 2013 that includes all the individual point locations recovered from individual surveys. In addition to the data table, the data is also shared as a .zip file containing a static web page with links to particular projects and the underlying data. To use the data, unzip it and use your web browser to open the index.html file.
