Existing Vegetation Cover

Vegetation cover represents the average percent cover of existing vegetation for a 30-m grid cell. The Existing Vegetation Cover layer was generated using a predictive modeling approach that related Landsat imagery and spatially explicit biophysical gradients to calculated values of average canopy cover from field training sites and digital orthophoto quadrangles.
