An integrated vegetation mapping approach for northern Alaska (1:4M scale). International Journal of Remote Sensing 20:2895-2920.The Circumpolar Arctic Vegetation Map (CAVM) defines the spatial extent of dominant vegetation in terms of the dominant plant growth forms and physiognomy. Mapped vegetation extends south to the treeline, which varies with longitude. Spatial coverage is 60 to 90 N, -180 to 180 W. The map is available in Adobe PDF format, ESRI Arc/Info and Shapefile format, among others.https://nsidc.org/data/GGD639/versions/1GET DATAhttp://www.geobotany.uaf.edu/cavm/Get External DataVIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/gis/GIS Data and Resources at NSIDCCEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92003-07-092006-12-13NSIDCVersion SummaryNSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCFull Dataset CitationPlease contact the data provider for the citation for these data.NSIDCRetiredfalse
