Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Manzanar National Historic Site
2005. Imagery data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Manzanar National Historic Site
This reference contains the imagery data used in the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Orthophotos, raw imagery, and scanned aerial photos are common files held here. The vegetation mapping was conducted at MANZ in two phases. The first phase conducted by the USGS Fort Collins Science Center created the primary vegetation and associated spatial data layers using the 2005 NAIP Manzanar NE DOQQ imagery (acquired on September 3, 2005 from the Cal-Atlas Geospatial Clearinghouse at http://atlas.ca.gov/). Preliminary mapping was conducted by the USGS through a semi-automated process using a combination of the ENVI Feature Extraction Module (ITT Visual Information Systems, 2008) and ArcGIS software (ESRI, 2008).
