    • Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Cape Cod National Seashore

    Metadata Updated: June 5, 2024

    The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

    A map showing the locations of vegetation map classes in the park was created, following the USGS/NPS Vegetation Mapping Program protocols (TNC and ESRI 1994a,b,c). A dichotomous field key was developed for these vegetation map classes to assist with field recognition and classification. The vegetation map covers 10,833 ha (26,769 ac) of Cape Cod National Seashore. The most abundant forest vegetation association is Pitch Pine - Oak Forest, which covers 1,756 ha (4,339 ac).
