Description

Spatially balanced sample for the whole of Flanders and the Brussels Capital Region based on the Generalized Random-Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) method (Stevens and Olsen, 2004). The sample consists of a grid of 32 meter x 32 meter cells, each having a unique ranking number. This so-called master sample is used as a basis to draw samples for different Natura 2000 habitat types in Flanders. A sample with sample size n for a certain habitat type is selected as follows: (1) select all grid cells of the master sample that overlap with the sampling frame of the target habitat type and (2) select then grid cells with the lowest ranking number.
