Publicly available GIS data from Yellowstone National Park hosted on the National Park Service ArcGIS Online (https://nps.maps.arcgis.com/home/index.html)

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. Aerial photointerpretation was conducted by the Project Manager with the help of an assistant mapper between the fall of 2012 and fall of 2014, using the 2009 1-meter spatial resolution National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery for the Utah portions of GLCA, and the 2010 1-meter spatial resolution NAIP for the Arizona portions of GLCA as the base image layers. The project used the program standard minimum mapping unit (MMU) of 0.5 ha with few exceptions. The majority of the mapping work was performed using ArcGIS editing tools and onscreen, heads-up digitizing, aided by ancillary datasets. Map classes were defined for the project by the primary photointerpreter (PI) with input from the GLCA Chief Scientist. A draft vegetation map and associated spatial database were completed for the Orange Cliffs section of GLCA in the summer of 2014 and for the remainder of GLCA/RABR in the late fall of 2014. Forty-eight map classes represented by 33,691 polygons were developed for GLCA/RABR. A total of 31,058 polygons represent 37 natural or semi-natural vegetation map classes covering 75% of the mapping project area. Eleven additional land use/land cover and geologic map classes describe 2,633 polygons (25% of the area). Average polygon size across all map classes is 23.1 ha (57.2 acres). Blackbrush Shrublands had the highest number of polygons (5,560) polygons covering 14.5% of the total vegetated mapping area.

These data were converted from the originally delivered Microsoft Access PLOTs database from the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Rainbow Bridge National Monument. 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. In 2009, Kass Green & Associates (KGA) was chosen by the NPS to map the vegetation of Grand Canyon National Park and the Lake Mead National Recreation Area – administered portions of the Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument using a National Vegetation Classification Standard (NVCS) compliant classification. Mapping tools and techniques used included remotely sensed digital airborne NAIP imagery, image segmentation, ancillary data, GIS biophysical modeling, photo interpretation, and field visits. This section of the report summarizes the methods used by KGA to map the vegetation of the project area. The vegetation was mapped in three phases based on floristic similarity and difficulties dealing with the logistical barriers presented by extreme terrain. Phase 1 included the high elevation forests and woodlands on rims of the eastern portion of the mapping area; Phase 2 was the inner canyon areas of the eastern and central mapping area; Phase 3 was most of the rim- and canyon areas west of Parashant Canyon. Each phase was mapped and accuracy assessed as a unit. The final mapping activities involved reconciling map classes, boundaries and accuracy assessment among all phases. The final map contained 87 map classes with a minimum mapping unit of 0.5 hectares across more than 560,000 hectares. The classes included 41 NVC Associations, 36 NVC Alliances, seven NVC Group-level classes and three classes of unvegetated surfaces (built-up, water, and bare soil/rock). Accuracy assessment (AA) was done for 1847 map segments, distributed based on map class abundances. Accuracy by map class varied between 13% (Pinyon – Juniper / Talus or Canyon Slope Scrub) and 100% (Douglas Fir / Snowberry Forest and 5 others); project-wide accuracy was 77%. Roughly one-third of the mis-identified samples were among closely– related vegetation types. Others were among classes which were found in similar habitats (e.g., constrained tributary beds) and had very similar spectral signatures.

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 vegetation map consists of 267 polygons comprising an area of 1842.5 ha (4,552.8 ac) (Table 4). Average polygon size is 6.7 ha (16.6 ac). One-hundred-nineteen polygons were 100% dominated by one physiognomic vegetation class. The remaining polygons contain two physiognomic vegetation classes, of these: (1) 59 were 90% dominated by the primary physiognomic class; (2) 34 were 80% dominated by the primary class type; (3) 16 were 70% dominated by the primary class type; (4) 15 polygons were 60% dominated by the primary class type; and (5) 24 polygons had a 50/50 split between the two physiognomic vegetation class types present. Maps are produced in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates (NAD 83) with a 1:24,000 scale and a minimum mapping unit of 0.5 hectares (ha) (1.24 acres (ac)). This vegetation feature class was updated in 2017 to reflect the final Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve boundary approved by the U.S. Congress on December 19, 2014, which deviated slightly from the original proposed expansion boundary and project area used in the original vegetation mapping effort.
