Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park
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. A geodatabase containing various feature class layers and tables was constructed to show the locations of vegetation types and general land cover (vegetation map), vegetation plot samples, AA sites, project boundary extent, and aerial photographic centers. The feature class layer for the KEMO vegetation map provides 296 polygons of detailed attribute data covering 1419.2 hectares, with an average polygon size of 9.4 hectares. Of the area mapped, 195 polygons (65.9% of all polygons) represent natural/semi-natural vegetation types in the NVCS, encompassing 1,129.1.6 hectares (79.6%) of the total map extent.
