Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Gauley River National Recreation Area

Metadata Updated: November 14, 2025

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 digital vegetation map for GARI was developed as a personal geodatabase using Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) ArcGIS software. The geodatabase includes a point feature class for locations of plots and two polygon-feature classes (clipped by the park boundary and unclipped) for vegetation, including non-vegetated land cover. The vegetation map includes 31 map classes. Upland communities comprise about 86% of the park area and are represented by 13 map classes. Two upland map classes each include patches of two associations, all others represent single associations.
