Resource Abstract:
- description: The GAP National Terrestrial Ecosystems - Ver 3.0 is a 2011 update of the National Gap Analysis Program Land
Cover Data - Version 2.2 for the conterminous U.S. The GAP National Terrestrial Ecosystems - Version 3.0 represents a highly
thematically detailed land cover map of the U.S. The map legend includes types described by NatureServe's Ecological
Systems Classification (Comer et al. 2002) as well as land use classes described in the National Land Cover Dataset 2011 (Homer
et al. 2015). These data cover the entire continental U.S. and are a continuous data layer. These raster data have a 30 m
x 30 m cell resolution. GAP used the best information available to create the land cover data; however GAP seeks to improve
and update these data as new information becomes available.; abstract: The GAP National Terrestrial Ecosystems - Ver 3.0 is
