      <abstract>This polygon boundary file was originally provided by staff from the Great Lakes Network in support of the Grand Portage National Monument (GRPO) Vegetation Mapping Project. The feature class table was further developed with pertinent information about the project.</abstract>
      <purpose>This spatial data set is in support of the NPS Vegetation Inventory Program (VIP), which is an effort to classify, describe, and map existing vegetation of national park units.</purpose>
