2010 USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Region Aerial Detection Survey Data. This data depicts the occurrence and location of forest insect, disease, and other biotic and abiotic causes of tree mortality and tree damage. Aerial survey data is collected by observing areas of tree damage or tree mortality from an aircraft and manually recording the information onto a map. Due to the nature of aerial surveys, this data will only provide rough estimates of location, intensity and the resulting trend information for agents detectable from the air. Many of the most destructive diseases are not represented in the data because these agents are not detectable from aerial surveys. The data presented should only be used as...

The 2006 National Insect and Disease Risk Map (NIDRM) Project integrates 188 individual risk models constructed within a common, consistent framework that accounts for regional variations in current and future forest health. The 2006 risk assessment, conducted within the contiguous United States and Alaska, provides a consistent, repeatable, transparent process through which interactive spatial and temporal risk assessments can be conducted at various scales to aid in the allocation of resources for forest health management. This modeling process is intended to increase the utilization of forest health risk maps within and outside the National Forest System and encourage development of future risk maps. NIDRM...

The acquisition of forest parameters by host species distributions is a significant factor in the identification of areas at risk of mortality to a particular agent. The most readily-available forest type maps do not contain enough location-specific information for insect and disease risk assessments, in particular species' age and stocking. Estimates for total and individual species' basal area (BA), quadratic mean diameter (QMD), stand density index (SDI), percent host composition, and predominant canopy position were developed for all 57 tree species and species groups modeled for the National Insect and Disease Risk Map. After extensively testing various interpolation methods, the Risk Map Integration Team...

Two maps (PCT_BALOSS_AK - the ArcInfo Grid referenced to this metadata - and PCT_BALOSS - see accompanying CONUS Grid and its associated metadata) represent, in map form, the comprehensive version of the final results of the 2006 National Insect and Disease Risk Map (NIDRM) Project. Specifically, their pixel values range from 0 to 100 percent, representing the predicted percent of basal area loss over the next 15 years due to insects and diseases.

Two maps (this grid, CONUS_BALOSSI and AK_BALOSSI - see accompanying Grid and its associated metadata) represent, in map form, the total potential BA loss resulting from the application of the 2006 National Insect and Disease Risk Map (NIDRM) Project. Specifically, it is the compilation of all BA losses resulting from running all 188 models of agent/host interactions which result in mortality.
