These data were converted from the originally delivered Microsoft Access PLOTs database from the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Assateague Island National Seashore. These comma-delimited data tables contain(s) vegetation mapping plot classification and accuracy assessment data, as well as summary information about the data itself. If a table is empty, then it was empty in the original database.

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 geodatabase containing various feature class layers and tables was constructed to show the locations of vegetation types and general land cover (vegetation map), vegetation plot samples, AA sites, project boundary extent, and aerial photographic centers. The feature class layer for the CUIS vegetation map provides 1,005 polygons of detailed attribute data covering 15,163.4 hectares, with an average polygon size of 144.7 hectares. Of the area mapped, 816 polygons (81% of all polygons) represent natural/semi-natural vegetation types in the NVCS, encompassing 9,542.8 hectares (62.9%) of the total map extent.

This reference contains the imagery data used in the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Orthophotos, raw imagery, and scanned aerial photos are common files held here. A total of 43 map classes were developed to map the vegetation and general land cover of Cumberland Island National Seashore and surroundings, including the following: 32 map classes representing natural/semi-natural vegetation at the association level in the National Vegetation Classification System (NVCS), 1 map class representing cultural vegetation (e.g., developed) in the NVCS, and 10 map classes representing non-vegetated units (e.g., open water bodies, buildings, roads). Features were interpreted using 1:12,000 scale digital color-infrared aerial photography (flown 01 May 2011) through heads-up-digitizing in ArcGIS (Version 10.0, © 2010 Environmental Systems Research Institute, Redlands, California). Polygons were mapped to a 0.5-hectare minimum mapping unit (MMU).
