NZ Local Ecological Marine Units EMU

Simple

Description: A higher resolution local version of the Esri Global Ecological Marine Units dataset, a 3D statistical volumetric clustering of the ocean, based on NIWA data. We will be using NIWA Oceanography Data to produce output for the NZ region.https://www.esri.com/en-us/about/science/ecological-marine-units/overview Ecological Marine Units (EMUs) are baseline 3D mapped ecosystems of the ocean that have been classified through statistical clustering. They are published in Oceanography journal https://www.tos.org/oceanography/article/a-three-dimensional-mapping-of-the-ocean-based-on-environmental-data: Sayre, R.G., D.J. Wright, S.P. Breyer, K.A.
