This map depicts the distribution of existing vegetation types contained in the LANDFIRE dataset. All 30-meter EVT grids were resampled to 90-meter grids and merged to create the final product. This map was created for the purpose of providing a coarse-scale perspective on the distribution of existing vegetation in the western United States.

LANDFIRE Vegetation Condition Class (VCC) raster data set, clipped to the boundary of the Sourthern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperative (SRLCC). VCC data quantifies the extent to which vegetation types have departed from simulated historical reference conditions. A VCC level of 1 represents a low level of departure, VCC 2 is moderate departure and VCC 3 is high departure. Other land cover categories are barren, sparsely vegetated, agriculture, urban, water and snow/ice. The attached Excel spreadsheet shows the area (square km) covered by each category, in the entire SRLCC and within its level III ecoregions. There is also an attached GIF preview image that shows how the raster data appear in ArcMAP. LANDFIRE...
