MoRAP worked with the National Park Service (NPS) as part of a nationwide vegetation mapping effort. This portion of the project was conducted at Herbert Hoover National Historic Site in Iowa, Hopewell Culture National Historic Park in Ohio, Lincoln Boyhood National Monument in Indiana, and Pipestone National Monument in Minnesota.
Objectives
Basic products include:
- Quantitative samples and analyses of data for all major current vegetation types.
- A vegetation report with vegetation types named according to or cross-walked to the most current version of the
provisional National Vegetation Classification content based on field plot sampling and tabular summaries of plot data by
vegetation. - A fine-resolution current vegetation map for the park with appropriate attributes in a GIS database.
- A key to classified vegetation types.
- Photos that represent all mapped types.
- Classification plot data entered into the most recent existing version of the NPS Vegetation Inventory PLOTS database.
- An accuracy assessment report of the final map produced independently.
