This seagrass habitat map was produced by the ACEAS Seagrass working group as part of the seagrass habitat risk modelling effort. The map identified seagrass presence based on 1) on the NISB (National Intertidal-Subtidal Benthic) Habitat Map created by the University of Tasmania for a partnership between the Department of Climate Change and the National Land and Water Resources Audit, 2) UNEP WCMC Seagrass map 2005, 3) publications/reports and 4) expert knowledge/personal observation.

Aquatic flora surveys were conducted in Wilson Inlet between 2007 and 2019. Surveys were initially conducted in 2007 and 2008 by the WA Government Department of Water (described by 2013 "Synthesis of seagrass mapping studies"), and again annually in 2017, 2018 and 2019 by the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation "Wilson Inlet Seagrass Survey - Cover (DWER-114)'. Data access is provided to the initial WA DoW surveys. See associated DWER record on Data WA for access to newer surveys.
