National Land Cover Database, percent tree canopy coverage- superzone fourteen (south)
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
This dataset portrays percent tree canopy coverage for NLCD mapping superzone <span style="">fourteen (south), covering
parts of Florida and Georgia</span> . Refer to <a href="http://www.mrlc.gov/nlcd_multizone_map.php">http://www.mrlc.gov/nlcd_multizone_map.php</a>
for a map of the superzones. <div> <br /> </div> <div> From NLCD: The National Land Cover Database 2001 was produced
through a cooperative project conducted by the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium. The MRLC Consortium
is a partnership of federal agencies (www.mrlc.gov), consisting of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA), the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), the Bureau
of Land Management (BLM) and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). One of the primary goals of the project
is to generate a current, consistent, seamless, and accurate National Land Cover Database (NLCD) circa 2001 for the United
States at medium spatial resolution. For a detailed definition and discussion on MRLC and the NLCD 2001 products, refer to
