National Park Service University of Missouri US Geological Survey 2009 vector digital data http://www1.usgs.gov/vip/ozar/ozargeodata.zip doi:10.5066/F79021RF High resolution vegetation polygons mapped by the National Park Service. This is a map of vegetation associations with 49- and 33-class maps (see table tVegMapInfo for 33 class attributes). Vegetation maps of National Parks and National Monuments were developed to support natural resources management, planning, research and interpretation. Data were imported to a file geodatabase by the Colorado Natural Heritage Program/Colorado State University. Parks had the flexibility to map vegetation down to the map class or to the association.
