Vegetation - Whiskeytown National Recreation Area Vegetation Mapping Project [ds986]

<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p><span>This work was done by Humboldt State University Sponsored Programs. The vegetation map adheres to the 2008 National Vegetation Classification Standard (NVCS) and the Manual of California Vegetation (MCV) around 42,000 acres of the NRA land.  The Association-Alliance map offers maximum classification detail with 38 classes (31 plant associations, 5 alliances, 1 Disturbed class and a Barren class), with the minimum mapping unit being 0.5 hectares. Three source images were acquired by the Ikonos satellite on July 25, 2003 and used a spatial pattern recognition software package called Feature Analyst (Visual Learning Systems 2006) to identify groups of pixels associated with various vegetation categories. The previously developed, vegetation classification at Whiskeytown National Recreation Area served as the basis for making the vegetation map. More information can be found in the project report, found here: https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentID=16313</span></p></div></div></div>

Vegetation sampling by means of the CNPS Relevé and Rapid Assessment Protocols was used to obtain a total of 710 Relevés and 1691 Rapid Assessments, which were used to develop a quantitative classification based on cluster and indicator species analyses. </span></p><p><span>The resulting classification describes vegetation types according to the National Vegetation Classification System; and was used as a basis for creating a map classification generally at the alliance level, where natural vegetation stands were discernable to that level using 1-meter aerial imagery acquired as part of the National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) in 2005 and 2009. The vegetation map includes 67 map units, of which 54 are natural vegetation map units at the floristic alliance level or higher (group) level and 13 are non-vegetation land use mapping units. The minimum mapping unit (MMU) varies: 2 acres for vegetation alliances, 1 acre for various land types, 1 acre for urban areas and 10 acres for natural vegetation within an urban core. </span></p></div></div></div>

Drinking Water - Open Environmental Data Project - March 23, 2023 Workshop

The following datasets related to regulated drinking water system facilities in California have been developed and are available for the purpose of the March 23, 2023, OEDP workshop.  The main purpose of the workshop is to engage community members and researchers in understanding datasets maintained and shared by the California State Water Resources Control Board Drinking Water Program and explore possibilities for their use and enhancement. Input from this workshop could be used to inform recommendations OEDP makes to partnering organizations about how to collect, share, and structure their open datasets. Conversations could also support community organizations in using water datasets to inform programming, policy advocacy, or organizing.
