Precision is defined as 1—the proportion of the total modelled area (i.e., smaller areas equate to higher precisions). Accuracy is the proportion of correct fish geolocations contained within the area specified by the precision. The diagonal dashed grey line represents the accuracy, which would be achieved by random allocation. The solid, grey vertical and horizontal lines show the optimal precision vs. accuracy values defined by (precision = 0.08, accuracy = 0.89).
