20190424 vector digital data Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission-Fish and Wildlife Research Institute https://public.myfwc.com/crossdoi/shorebirds/index.html The Florida Shorebird Database (FSD) collects current occurrence information and reproductive data on 6 focal species of solitary nesting shorebirds (American Oystercatcher, Black-necked Stilt, Killdeer, Snowy Plover, Willet, Wilson’s Plover) and 14 species of colonial nesting seabirds (Black Skimmer, Bridled Tern, Brown Noddy, Brown Pelican, Caspian Tern, Gull-billed Tern, Laughing Gull, Least Tern, Magnificent Frigatebird, Masked Booby, Roseate Tern, Royal Tern, Sandwich Tern, Sooty Tern). These species nest on beaches and sometimes rooftops along the Florida coast. The FSD also collects occurrence data on wintering species of shorebirds and seabirds using coastal habitat in Florida. The FSD is managed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), and is maintained as a free online resource for information on Florida's shorebirds and seabirds. Long-term monitoring of shorebirds and seabirds across Florida is impracticable for any one agency or organization, and requires an extensive network of groups and individuals. The FSD facilitates this collaborative approach by providing a central location for data entry, compilation, and storage. Data from the FSD are used in many ways. At the local and regional level, partners regularly rely on the data to plan and assess management activities for particular shorebird and seabird sites in their area. In addition, different agencies use the data to review permits for proposed projects near important shorebird and seabird sites. At the statewide level, biologists plan to use these data to determine distribution, status, and trends for various species of shorebird and seabird in Florida. They will inform important conservation planning efforts such as setting conservation priorities, identifying critical habitat, and assessing species for state listing. The original online database, the Florida Beach-nesting Birds Website, was launched in 2005. This database was designed as a management tool providing real-time information to managers and permit reviewers to help them respond to situations involving nesting shorebirds and seabirds. However, as use of the database expanded, its potential as a research tool soon became evident. In 2010 [These 2005-2010 data are available as a separate dataset, BeachNestingBirds_2005_2010_fl_pnt]. FWC collaborated with multiple partners to create the Florida Shorebird Database (FSD). By restructuring the old database and standardizing monitoring protocols, the FSD can serve as the tool that will provide answers to important questions about the status of shorebirds and seabirds in Florida while continuing to function as a management tool. Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information. 20110223 20151028 ground condition Complete Annually -87.522537 -79.894617 30.728396 24.508258 ISO 19115 Topic Category biota Wildlife surveys birds Habitat shoreline Operational Tiers Wildlife Research Avian Research Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute FWC Common Names bird FWC Regions Northeast South Southwest North Central Northwest Water Management Districts South Florida Suwannee Northwest Florida St. Johns River FWC Place statewide FWC Stratum shorelines Available without restriction.

The FSA is a statewide partnership of government and non-government organizations committed to advancing shorebird and seabird conservation in Florida through coordinated and collaborative work that helps identify and address important needs with regard to research, management, education, outreach, and public policy. This database and online data entry application were developed by Kristin Rogers, Jake Gipson and Chris Burney with input from FWC staff and the FSA. State Wildlife Grant funding supports multiple shorebird and seabird projects and staff. The statewide beaches HCP grant supports the maintenance of this database and website. FWRI-DC Available without restriction SQL Server 2014 converted to ESRI feature class Errors were reduced by limiting surveyors to a list of options to choose from on the survey forms. Data entries were visually inspected to ensure all attributes fell within defined values. Locations were queried to confirm correct "FWC Region" and "County" attributes. Entries into the "TrackSummary" field were standardized according to capitalization and spelling of tracks observed. Entries into the FSD SQL Server database that did not include latitude and longitude values were not included in this spatial dataset. Visually inspected annually for accuracy. 'Status' field in attribute field describes status of visual review. Visually inspected annually for completeness. 'Status' field in attribute field describes status of visual review. 20160205 None 20160205 publication date Florida Shorebird Database tabular data A standardized monitoring protocol, entitled 'Breeding Bird Protocol for Florida’s Seabirds and Shorebirds' (BBP), was developed by FWC with input from partners of the Florida Shorebird Alliance. The BBP provides instructions on how to survey nesting shorebirds and seabirds in Florida. For detailed information about the BBP, please refer to: https://public.myfwc.com/CrossDOI/Shorebirds/instructions-pages/step_4-breeding.html. Partnership volunteers conduct surveys and record appropriate data according to the BBP. At minimum, partners are requested to survey all established routes and check all sites (ground and rooftops) at least six times each season according to 4 count windows (See BBP). Volunteers enter the survey data into an online digital dataset. FSA staff visually inspect each entry for errors, recording the inspection status of each record.
