Data and models from: A novel design method for customized visual delimiting surveys for plant pests based on transects and scouting

    Models were used in the manuscript "A novel design method for customized visual delimiting surveys for plant pests based on transects and scouting," by Barney P. Caton, Godshen R. Pallipparambil, and Hui Fang. This paper describes a novel approach for designing custom visual delimitation surveys, called ‘Delimitation via Transect Data and Scouting,’ or DTDS.

    Data from: Quantifying Insect Dispersal Distances from Trapping Detections Data to Predict Delimiting Survey Radii, raw Mexfly data

      Trapping survey detections data for Mexfly, Anastrepha ludens, with latitudes and longitudes and other spatial identifications removed, to protect private properties from being identified. Data are from Texas, 2016-2019, and were used to quantify the dispersal kernel, or total distance travelled, up to 30 days. "Raw Mexfly detections data v1.csv" is the dataset for all detections, which can be used to verify the records that were included (clustered) in the analysis or not (not clustered).
