Lineage The primary data collection tool was an online survey used to generate primary data on usage and perceptions of cultural value. A selection of coastal businesses was also surveyed via telephone to gain their insight on local resident use of the coastal and marine environment. The survey first collected information on the beaches that respondents use most frequently, and activities participated in at those sites to understand the current recreational use of coastal locations. Questions also investigated distance travelled and money spent at the coastal locations. The survey then asks respondents about other cultural aspects of the coastal and marine environment including recreation, heritage, and identify and aesthetics, to get a qualitative understanding of different types of cultural value. The survey concludes with respondents’ current environmental attitudes and questions to collect demographic information on the respondents. The target sampling requirements for the survey was for a nationally representative sample of households in TCI based on the following respondent criteria: island of residence, age, gender, and place of origin. Sampling quotas were specified according to national statistics. The result data were placed into the word spreadshet and converted to the shapefile using WGS84 as a coordinate system.
