Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Tumacacori National Historical Park

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

The draft formation-level map was produced through limited field reconnaissance and visual interpretation of the pan-sharpened imagery and heads-up digitizing in ArcGIS to delineate polygons based on vegetation physiognomy. Spatial accuracy was assessed against 2006 digital orthophoto quarter quadrangle imagery, using 20 test points for each of the park’s three units. The maximum absolute error measured was less than 2 m ground distance, and maximum root mean square error was 1.03 m, well within the limits of the National Map Accuracy Standards.

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Using field sample site information, the Alliance/Association classes were extrapolated to polygons sharing like aspects in the same regional area. A preliminary vegetation map was created and then reviewed by TNC field biologists for accuracy. If necessary, revisions to the delineations or the computer model were made and another map was produced for review. This process was repeated until the TNC biologists approved of all classification assignments.

Small Mammal Inventory in Fort Clatsop, Lewis and Clark National Historic Park tabular data

Inventory of small mammals tabular data in the Fort Clatsop subunit of Lewis and Clark National Historic Park, 2002. In 2001, a small mammal and bat survey was conducted at Fort Clatsop National Memorial (FOCL, now known as Lewis and Clark National Historical Park, or LEWI). Sherman live traps were used to sample in 5 areas of the park, and mist nets were used to sample volant mammals in one additional area of the park. A total of 418 captures representing 242 individual animals of 9 small mammal species were documented as a result of the study. In addition, one bat was captured (long-eared bat - Myotis evotis).

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Timpanogos Cave National Monument

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Field reconnaissance is intended to familiarize the photo interpreter with the Monument, patterns of vegetation distribution, and environmental factors. During map class and attribute development, the mapping ecologist uses all available information, professional experience, and an inspection of the aerial imagery to develop map classes and appropriate attributes. Mapping is the process during which the photo interpreter uses field data, field notes, and characteristic photo signatures to draw consistent, homogenous polygons on the base photography. During spatial database development, attributes (e.g., vegetation height, land use category) and ancillary datasets (e.g., photos, map class descriptions) are linked to each point or polygon in the spatial layer. Because TICA is a small park, the first three steps were accomplished simultaneously during the plot data collection visit in June 2007.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Valley Forge National Historical Park

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Upon completion of the formation-level classification, CEO staff created a draft association-level vegetation map using a classification scheme based on The Nature Conservancy’s Terrestrial Vegetation of the United States and association-level classes developed by PSO-TNC. Copies of the Valley Forge National Historical Park data in PLOTS database (MS ACCESS) format and the PC-ORD formatted data (MS EXCEL spreadsheet) were provided to NatureServe and The Nature Conservancy. A draft vegetation classification was provided to CEO photointerpreters by the end of January 2001. The draft classification was accompanied by an ARCVIEW shapefile indicating the location and plot number of each sample plot, as well as the vegetation association to which that plot was classified. CEO photointerpreters used the draft classification and related ARCVIEW shapefile to help inform the attribution of associations to the association-level map polygons.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Based on the plot sampling data and the classification of 43 vegetation associations, the vegetation cover type map was revised to correct errors and create more accurate vegetation polygon boundaries at the USNVC association level. In this iteration, plot data, field observations, classification analyses, aerial photography signatures, and topographic maps were used to revise polygon boundaries and attributes.

Thematic accuracy of this preliminary vegetation association map was then assessed. Based on accuracy assessment sampling data, the association map was revised again to correct errors and create the final vegetation association polygon boundaries. In this final revision, accuracy assessment data were used in addition to the resources noted above to revise polygon boundaries and attributes.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Walnut Canyon National Monument

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

A draft hard copy vegetation map at the 1:12,000 scale was printed and checked against the interpreted aerial photographs. As a final internal accuracy check, we applied photointerpretative observations and classification relevés over the vegetation map to determine if the polygon labels matched the field data.
Finally, map validation occurred prior to the accuracy assessment. Staff from RSGIG conducted a field trip in conjunction with other meetings in Flagstaff, AZ in January 2001 to refine and assess the initial mapping effort. On this trip we collected additional photointerpretative observations and ground-truthed aerial photograph signatures using landmarks and GPS waypoints. Map classes were lumped or split to account for inadequacies in the final photointerpretation. Metadata are required for all spatial data produced by the federal government. RSGIG used SIMMS™ software and CPRS used ArcCatalogue software to create the FGDC-compliant metadata files attached to the spatial databases and to this report (see Appendix A). The metadata files explain the vegetation coverage and ancillary coverages created by RSGIG, the classification relevé data coverage created by CPRS, and the accuracy assessment observation data created by CPRS.

Trimble SX12 Scanner Elevation Data for the Little Red Shop Local Historic District, BLRV

The dataset includes 5 panoramic scans of the buildings, cultural resources, and other features within the National Park Service boundaries at Roger Williams National Memorial. The scans exist as point cloud files in Trimble Business Center. Each scan has at most 24 panoramic photographs associated with it, depending on whether it was a horizontal band or polygon scan. The points have been colorized based off the panoramic photographs and have been categorized into regions, such as buildings, ground, poles, and trees. There is a layer of points selected from the bottom of doorway thresholds to capture the finished floor elevation data. There is also a layer of points representing the elevation of first floor windows and basement windows. Each point in the layer has elevation data and latitude and longitude data associated with it. The layers are exportable into ArcGIS Pro as point layers, and the data associated with each point layer is exportable as a CSV file. The data was collected in NAD83 (2011) meters UTM Zone 19 and NAVD88. The controller used was a Trimble TSC7 data collector. Control points were set using the BOHA NTRIP base station, an R12i GNSS receiver, and a prism. Scans were completed using a Trimble SX12 scanner that was set so that points would be 2 cm apart at 20 m with a scanning distance of 200 m and a scanning radius of 1 m from the scanner. The scans were performed using the coarse resolution, stored in Trimble Access, and exported to Trimble Business Center.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Wupatki National Monument

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Final WUPA map classes used for interpreting the aerial photographs were derived (1) from plant associations and alliances described by CPRS, (2) from the Anderson (1976) Level II land use classification system, (3) from land cover classes, and (4) from unique stands specific to WUPA. A draft hard copy vegetation map at the 1:12,000 scale was printed and checked against the interpreted aerial photographs. As a final internal accuracy check, RSGIG applied photointerpretation observations and classification relevés over the vegetation map to determine if the polygon labels matched the field data.
Map validation occurred prior to the accuracy assessment. Because of the difficulties in interpreting the vegetation directly from the aerial photographs, we eventually mapped and/or validated much of the project area in the field. Metadata are required for all spatial data produced by the federal government. RSGIG used SIMMS™ software to create the three FGDC-compliant metadata files attached to the spatial databases and to this report. The metadata files explain the vegetation coverage and ancillary coverages created by RSGIG, the plot data coverage created by CPRS, and the accuracy assessment data created by CPRS.
