Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Navajo National Monument
2005. Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Navajo National Monument
This reference is an assemblage of field data collected as part the baseline vegetation inventory for the park unit. Typical files here are vegetation plot data, accuracy assessment data, field photos, PDF showing locations of vegetation plots and accuracy assessment data, and other data for this type. Field data collected in 2005 were used as base information for vegetation classification. The described types fit into the National Vegetation Classification Standard (NVCS). To classify vegetation, we used 49 plots collected by Daniela Roth and David Remucal of the Navajo Natural Heritage Program, and Dave Wegner of Environmental Management International (EMI). In addition, 56 informal field observations, collected during the 2005 field season, were also consulted. These plots were compared to existing NVC types and assigned an appropriate type.
