Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Mount Rainier National Park

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for Mount Rainier National Park. The vegetation map is a geotiff raster, and at 67MB may be difficult to download. An ArcGIS file geodatabase contains plot data and lookup tables that relate map class units to mapping associations. The geodatabase includes a vegetation Feature dataset with the park boundary and project boundary used in the map.

The map development process was organized around the random forests machine learning algorithm. The modeling used 1,900 plots representing 124 vegetation associations and 37 map classes. Imagery from the National Agriculture Imagery Program and the Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 satellites, airborne lidar bare earth and canopy height data, elevation data from the U.S. Geological Survey 3D Elevation Program, and climate normals from the PRISM Climate Group were used to develop a variety of predictor metrics. The predictors and the map class calls at each plot were input to a process in which each map class was modeled against every other map class in a factorial random forests scheme. We used the plot-level modeling outcomes and species composition data to adjust the crosswalk between association and map class so that floristic consistency and model accuracy were jointly optimized across all classes. The map was produced by predicting the factorial models and selecting the overall best-performing class at each 3-meter pixel. The final vegetation map, including a buffer surrounding the park, contains 33 natural vegetated classes, five mostly unvegetated natural classes, and four classes representing burned areas or anthropogenic disturbance

Trails of Yellowstone National Park

The main Trail Survey took place during the years of 1997-2000. Differentially corrected GPS (Global Positioning System) data were collected primarily on foot for all existing maintained trails and spur trails to backcountry campsites, attractions and buildings within the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park (YNP).The trails that could not be obtained through the GPS or have been rerouted since the survey were acquired through the uses of 1 meter Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quads (DOQQs) and the help of backcountry rangers with knowledge of where the trails are located. There are also associated GPS data for trail bridges, backcountry campsites, patrol cabins and trail surface type. Trail usage data also documented by using visitor ski and bike trail maps. Trails data have been updated since the original survey using information from the Yellowstone Backcountry Office, trails maintenance personnel, best available imagery resources, and GPS data. This layer is a work in progress.

Glacier Bay, Alaska murrelet survey corrected observations (KM_D) for survey year 2012

During GLBA field surveys, observation data are directly recorded into an ArcGIS file geodatabase through a custom application that runs on laptops and later iPads. These are stored in their original raw form after the field survey and are never edited.  Quality control processes detailed in the protocol results in the creation of this deliverable KM_D Corrected Observations.  Along with the corrected file geodatabase, a flat CSV file detailing all bird group observations is also included in the KM_D zip package.

Estimated Extent of Coastal Flooding due to Storm Surge Data for 79 National Parks

This data release consists of the estimated extent of coastal flooding due to storm surge. Storm surge values were derived from 2 sources; National Weather Service (NWS) SLOSH (Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes) MOM (Maximum of the Mean Envelope of Overwash Water (MEOW)) (Jelesnianski et al.,1992) and in areas where SLOSH output is not available then historic patterns of extreme high water events at tide gauges was used (Tebaldi et al., 2012). See the metadata files and porject page for further description.

Glacier Bay, Alaska murrelet survey detection function (KM_J) for survey year 2021

Program DISTANCE generates three output files for each year that are used for producing estimates of murrelet population status and trends. They are packaged together in a zip for downloading. The first file is named DFStats_yyyy.csv, which contains the estimates and related statistics used for Trend analyses and whose content is defined in Table SOP 11.3 of the protocol document. DFStats_status_yyyy.csv contains similar information, but is relevant to Status analysis. DFPlot_yyyy.png is a graphic depicting the detection function for a year, as illustrated in protocol Figure SOP 11.22.

These data products have been compared against the formal quality criteria specified in the protocol in use at the time of product creation, found to be in complete compliance, and accepted by the program lead for public dissemination.

Fen Inventory at Grand Teton National Park and John D. Rockefeller Jr Memorial Parkway - Geospatial Data - Dataset as Delivered

Little is known about fens in Grand Teton National Park (GRTE) and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway (JODR). To better manage fen resources in GRTE and JODR, the National Park Service funded the Colorado Natural Heritage Program to create a map of potential fens within GRTE and JODR, visit potential fen polygons to verify their status as fens, and survey for rare fen-indicator plant species. Potential fens were mapped in the winter of 2022-23. The initial map of fens contained 906 potential fens covering 5,208 acres. Field sampling took place in the summer of 2023 and verified 41 fens and 28 peat-accumulating wetlands. Field sampling also confirmed that 48 polygons were not fens. The revised map contained 1,016 acres of confirmed or highly likely fens, which were concentrated at elevations below 2100 m in specific areas of the parks, including Lower Jackson Lake watershed and most of JODR. One hundred and twenty-seven populations of 23 rare fen-indicator plant species were observed either within or near confirmed fens. Rapid vegetation surveys were conducted in 38 confirmed fens. Most fens were characterized as rich fens, with some considered poor fens and no sites meeting the water chemistry and vegetation classification of extreme rich fen. GRTE and JODR fens are exceptional resources that support numerous rare species. Management plans for the park units should protect and avoid impacting these special habitats and their species so they remain intact into the future.
