Biscayne Shipwrecks - Analyze Week

   In this week's lab, analysis was conducted on the benthic and bathymetric data from last week. Buffers and clipping was used to determine what type of benthic features could be found within 300 meters of the Heritage Trail shipwreck sites. The benthic and bathymetric data was further analyzed through reclassification in order to determine areas that could be potentially dangerous for ships to travel through. Finally, this reclassified data was ran through a weighted overlay analysis, combining both inputs together to create an output that displays potential areas for shipwreck locations.
