Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Whiskeytown National Recreation Area
2005. Field data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Whiskeytown National Recreation Area
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. In order to assess the accuracy of the vegetation map that we have compiled for the Whiskeytown Unit, we sampled the mapped vegetation polygons in the field. A sampling protocol is provided as required by this Task Agreement. We allocated approximately 500 plots according to the NPS standard allocation percentages, producing a plot distribution that considers class abundance such that more abundant classes receive more sample plots. This protocol assumes a production rate of approximately 10 plots per day and a budget to cover approximately 50 days.
