Vicksburg National Military Park Vegetation Mapping Project - Spatial Vegetation Data

These data represent a vegetation map for Vicksburg National Military Park and Vicksburg National Cemetery. The data consist of nonoverlapping polygons which represent National Vegetation Classification vegetation types, and non-vegetated land cover features. Vegetation types were classified based on analysis of plot data and supplemental observations collected on the ground from 2004 through 2010. Polygons were delineated based on interpretation of digital aerial photography flown in 2004 and terrian modeling. More detailed methodology is documented in Lea, Waltermire, and Nordman (2013).
