This project will produce an existing vegetation type map at 30m resolution for the entire Western Alaska LCC region. The lack of a consistently mapped vegetation data layer for Alaska has been identified as a primary road block for many conservation and management entities across the state. This project will address a number of the LCC conservation goals by addressing a baseline science need that is the foundation for current and future project within the region.
The objective of this project was to produce an Alaskan Existing Vegetation Type (AKEVT) map at 30m resolution for a portion of the Western Alaska Landscape Conservation Cooperative (WALCC) region using a very consistent (2000 +/- 1 yr.) remote sensing data set (Landsat 7 ETM+) and the same methodology. The mapped area encompasses the western and northern parts of the WALCC region, plus the Kodiak Archipelago.
This project produced an existing vegetation type map at 30m resolution for the northern half of the Western Alaska LCC region, and Kodiak Archipelago. The lack of a consistently mapped vegetation data layer for Alaska has been identified as a prima​​ry road block for many conservation and management entities across the state. This project addresses a number of the LCC conservation goals by addressing a baseline science and provides a foundation for current and future projects within the region. This project utilized imagery and data already available that had been used in the LANDFIRE vegetation layer from the early 2000s (http://www.landfire.gov/index.php). A reanalysis of the imagery was made by an Alaskan company,...

The mapped area encompasses the western and northern parts of the WALCC region, plus the Kodiak Archipelago. The legend was based on grouping the Alaska Vegetation Classification (Viereck, et al. 1992) Level IV classes to exclude the differences in vegetation height and canopy closure. Three major types of data were utilized; field plot data, Landsat 7 ETM+ spectral data, and environmental variables. All of the available...
