Summary

These data show triangulated results from Vemco Positioning Systems (VPS; https://vemco.com/products/vps/) set in Yellowstone Lake, WY. The data consist of transmissions from acoustic transmitters placed in fish to 69 kHz receivers. Field data were sent to Vemco for processing (proprietary software) and processed to determine the triangluated results shared within this data set. The data provided show triangulated positions of Lake Trout within suspected spawaning locations in Yellowstone Lake.
