This grain size is biologically appropriate given the scale of movement of most bat species, which routinely travel many kilometers each night between roosts and foraging areas and along foraging routes. A Generalized Random-Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) Survey Design draw was added to the sample units from the raw sampling grids (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9M00P17). This dataset represents the final 2018 NABat Sampling grid with various landscape level attributes added (country, state/territory, county, percent water, and land ownership/management). Grid cells that fall outside the area of interest were removed from each individual sampling frame. The GRTS design provides solutions to several practical challenges faced by bat surveyors that are not provided by more familiar designs such as simple random, stratified, and systematic sampling. The GRTS design allows for sample site additions and deletions, supports unequal-probability selection of survey locations, and provides an approximately unbiased neighborhood-weighted variance estimator that takes advantage of the spatial structure present in the surveyed population. Attributions and extraneous cells were added to assist users of the frame. 2018 publication date Complete None planned -127.9449 -65.2626 51.5144 22.9170 Continental United States ISO 19115 Topic Category biota location USGS Thesaurus ecosystem monitoring USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:5b7b563ae4b0f5d57884615b Common geographic areas United States None.
