- Habitats.gpkg is a GeoPackage file containing polygons for the Southern Benguela implementation habitat areas for StrathE2E. This includes digitised sediment map data from Birch et al. 2986 (Birch, G.F. and Rogers, J. and Bremner, J.M., 1986. Texture and composition of surficial sediments on the continental margin of the Republics of South Africa, Transkei and Ciskei)
- sau_landings_strath_gears.parq is a Parquet file containing fisheries landing data from Sea Around Us that has been allocated to StrathE2E Southern Benguela gears and guilds. The data is collated from White and Derrick 2020 (White, R. and Derrick B. 2020. South Africa: Updated Catch Reconstruction for 2011 - 2018. Updating to 2018 the 1950-2010 Marine Catch Reconstructions of the Sea Around Us: Part I – Africa, Antarctica, Europe and the North Atlantic.) The code used to process this data can be found at:
