This polygon feature class represents vegetation communities mapped at Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. The polygons were generated using guidelines set by the Standardized National Vegetation Classification System (October 1995). Original lines were drawn on mylar overlays using the DOQs collected in June of 2002. Hard copy 9x9 photography was used for photo interpretation. Traditional image interpretation cues were used to develop the polygons, such as shape, size, pattern, tone, texture, color, and shadow. Additional data layers were used in aiding the interpretation, such as slope, hydrology, geography, and ground-collected vegetation information. The attributed vegetation classes were subjected to...
A total of 294.7 acres (119.3 hectares) are within the accepted boundaries of PIPE (Figure 8). The standard minimum mapping unit for NPS vegetation mapping projects is defined as 0.5 hectare, although several mapped polygons were smaller for PIPE. Central Mesic Tallgrass Prairie made up 57.3% of the vegetated area of the monument, and dominated the view shed (157.1 acres; 63.6 hectares). The Restored Tallgrass Prairie made up another 24.4% of the monument, and was continuous with Central Mesic Tallgrass Prairie. Northern Tallgrass Quartzite Outcrop vegetation formed an essentially continuous, narrow belt along the length of a Sioux quartzite outcrop, including the lip of the rim of a bluff in some areas, and made...
This shapefile is an vegetation map of Petersburg National Battlefield, Virginia. It was developed by The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Natural Heritage in cooperation with North Carolina State University's Center for Earth Observation for the Northeast Region of the National Park Service. The data was created following general guidelines set forth by the USGS-NPS Vegetation Mapping Program. Map classes are crosswalked to the U.S. National Vegetation Classification (USNVC) or level II of the Andersons land use land cover classification system. Crosswalks to the USNVC were determined on September 27, 2007. The map is based on field work performed in the summer of 2002-2006 and photo...
Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site forested and non-forested land cover were typed with US National Vegetation Classification (2007) types, from 2004 Color Infrared, 1:8,000 scale photography and ground information. Data were projected to UTM, NAD83, zone 18, meters.
Mammoth Cave National Park (MACA) Vegetation Map Data
Homestead National Monument (HOME) encompasses 184 acres in Gage County, west of Beatrice, Nebraska. This unique site hosts the oldest prairie restoration in the National Park system, and the second-oldest tallgrass prairie restoration known. This park unit also has a small remnant of native tallgrass prairie and remnants of bur-oak forest. The park also provides significant cultural resources, with historic buildings and a Heritage Center devoted to the history of homesteading. To better understand the distribution of the plant assemblages located on these sites, the NPS Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network started a vegetation mapping and classification effort at HOME in 2007.A three-year program was initiated...

A total of 237 acres (96 hectares) are within the accepted boundaries of GWCA. Restored tallgrass prairie made up most of the current vegetation of the park, and accounted for 134 acres (54.1 ha) in eight polygons, or 56.5% of the total area. Ruderal woodland and forest was the next most abundant with 53.6 acres in eight polygons, or 22.6% of the park. Non-native ruderal grassland and ruderal shrubland accounted for 25 acres (10.1 ha or 10.5%) and 2.2 acres (0.9 ha).
Vegetation at AZRU was mapped and classified by a combination of plot data field visits and photointerpretation. The protocols and standards used are those for small parks and are described in the NPS/BRD program documents (National Mapping Program Field Methods for Vegetation Mapping (1994a) for small parks (section 5.1). BOR was contracted by the Southern Colorado Plateau Network in 2005 to map approximately 1,230 acres (~ 500 ha) of Aztec Ruins National Monument and environs.Vegetation mapping for AZRU encompassed both the executive boundary of AZRU and a 0.5 km environ buffer.

Between 2003 - 2008, the vegetation within a study area of 18,210 hectares (44,997 acres) that encompasses the Pinnacles National Monument (PINN), a quarter-mile buffer and several additional parcels of interest adjacent to the Park was mapped. The map was produced from photo interpretation of 2003 and 2005 natural color and 2002 color infrared digital 1 meter NAIP imagery orthophotos. In 2003 and 2004 Park staff collected vegetation and environmental data from 591 relev�s to support the map and classification. Assessment of map accuracy entailed sampling of 766 additional data points in 2008. Multivariate analysis of the 2003-2004 plot data revealed 67 National Vegetation Classification (NVC) plant associations,...
This geodatabase is an association-level map of the vegetation of the Morristown National Historical Park created using the US National Vegetation Classification (NVC). Fourteen NVC associations and four land use categories were mapped. Field work was conducted in 2003 and 2004 during which 22 vegetation plots were recorded on standardized field forms. Plot data were entered into the NPS PLOTS 2.0 database (NatureServe 2003), then exported to a spreadsheet. The data were analyzed using PC-ORD version 4.0 Multivariate Analysis package (McCune and Mefford 1999), and the resulting vegetation types were crosswalked to the NVC. Those types not previously described by the NVC were newly created provisional types. Altered...

Stones River National Battlefield Vegetation Map Data
A vegetation database of the riparian vegetation located within the Colorado River ecosystem was constructed using four-band image mosaics acquired in May 2002. A digital line scanner was flown by ISTAR Americas using a Leica ADS-40 digital camera over the Colorado River corridor in Arizona to acquire a digital surface model (DSM) and four-band image mosaics (blue, green, red and near-infrared) for vegetation mapping. The vegetation base map was constructed through a combination of ground surveys to identify vegetation classes and image processing and automated supervised classification procedures. Analysis of the imagery and subsequent supervised classification involved multiple steps to evaluate band quality,...
The geographic information system (GIS) format spatial data set of vegetation for Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CUVA) was created for the National Park Service (NPS) Vegetation Inventory Program (VIP). The CUVA administrative boundary covers an area of nearly 13,000 ha. The map classification scheme used to create the vegetation data set is designed to represent local vegetation types at the finest level possible using the National Vegetation Classification Standard (NVCS) Version 2. Physiognomic information was also recorded, including height (woody vegetation), canopy density, and coverage patterns. The vegetation data set was developed by interpreting aerial imagery collected in October of 2010 and extensive...
The Petrified Forest National Park Vegetation Map Database was developed as a primary product in the Petrified Forest National Park Vegetation Classification, Distribution, and Mapping project. The map database maps vegetation at four levels of thematic organization at the park: the base, group, macro-group, and management map classes. Most of the base map classes represent plant communities identified to National Vegetation Classification associations. The associated report, Vegetation Classification and Distribution Mapping Report: Petrified Forest National Park, describes in detail the methods used to develop the map database and map classes. The project was sponsored by the USA-National Vegetation Mapping Program...
