Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Grand Portage National Monument
2008. Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Grand Portage National Monument
The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles. Ultimately, we developed a geodatabase containing four feature classes: vegetation points (containing vegetation sample points and AA sites), vegetation and land use polygons (showing locations of vegetation types and general land features), 1:12,000-scale CIR aerial photograph centers, and project boundary extent. Included in the geodatabase are several tables providing a suite of supporting information, from classification crosswalks to detailed sampling data. All geospatial products are projected in the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), Zone 16, using the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).
