Riparian vegetation classification of the Colorado River Corridor, Grand Canyon, Arizona, 2013—Data

Metadata Updated: July 6, 2024

These data are classification maps of total riparian vegetation along the Colorado River in Grand Canyon from Glen Canyon Dam to Pearce Ferry in Arizona. The data are derived from interpretation of multispectral high resolution airborne imagery that was acquired in May 2013. The total vegetation data have the same 0.2-meter ground resolution as the imagery. These data have not undergone a statistical accuracy assessment, but they are based on methods that included image interpretation to exhaustively identify total vegetation which have been shown to produce very high classification accuracies and excellent correlation between maps of total vegetation produced by independent analysts and ground truth. The data represent total vegetation that is primarily green and photosynthetically active at the time of image acquisition, and do not necessarily represent vegetation at various stages of senescence or defoliated/dead vegetation that may still be rooted and standing.
