Description: Reference data for this project came from numerous sources including: 1) Forest Service field crews collecting vegetation information specific to this project; 2) GO field crews collecting vegetation information for this project; 3) helicopter survey data; 4) Young-Growth Inventory data; 5) legacy data from previous Forest Service survey plots and the Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program (FIA data are not included in this database); 6) legacy data from the prior Yakutat vegetation mapping project; and 7) image interpretation. This database contains reference data collected by US Forest Service field crews for the Northern Tongass Existing Vegetation Type Map.Tongass National Forest personnel collected most of the ground data that was targeted for this mapping effort using a variety of means—primarily by foot using existing trail and road infrastructure, or by boat—to collect samples that capture the diversity of vegetation across the project area. Helicopter survey data were collected over the course of three weeks in July 2024 for the Northern Tongass, with the goal of reaching difficult to access areas. The Young-Growth Inventory information was leveraged as reference data from actively managed forest stands. Legacy data was cross-referenced with the classification key to label each plot with a vegetation type. All sites were reviewed within the context of their corresponding segment using high-resolution imagery.For more detailed information on reference data methodology please see the Central and Northern Tongass Existing Vegetation Project Report.
