Abstract: In the spring of 1992, the Pacific Northwest Region of the National Park Service contracted with Pacific Meridian Resources to develop and produce a comprehensive GIS vegetation land cover and geomorphic landform database for the four large parks in the Pacific Northwest (Olympic, North Cascades, Mt. Rainier, and Crater Lake National Parks). The study was designed to develop a comprehensive, consistent inventory and mapping of the vegetation and landform characteristics for the park using digital Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) satellite imagery and field collected data as the primary information bases. Final products resulting from the study are three separate raster GIS data layers of tree size and forest structure, forest species, and forest crown cover. Accuracy assessment procedures were implemented to assess the accuracy of the satellite image classification. In addition, a spatially related database of vegetation characteristics was developed from the compilation and analysis of an extensive vegetation inventory completed for each park. This database contains detailed vegetation information that can not be measured using remotely sensed data such as satellite imagery or aerial photography. Also, a digital map of geomorphologic landforms was produced through the analysis and interpretation of digital elevation data, digital shaded relief maps, high-altitude aerial photography, and digital satellite imagery. This study provides the National Park Service with a powerful set of baseline spatial and tabular data and information for the four national parks with which more effective monitoring, evaluation, and management of the parks' natural and cultural resources. In addition, the maps, databases, and procedures developed in this study will facilitate an evaluation of the utilization of integrating digital satellite imagery and field-based observations and inventories for vegetation mapping, characterization, and monitoring for the national parks of the Pacific Northwest.
Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to develop a comprehensive digital GIS database that would increase the knowledge base for ecosystems in the four parks and could be used by NPS managers to more effectively manage park resources. In addition, the database provides the NPS with a framework on which to build more extensive and detailed information as future studies allow. This layer is one part of one of the primary components of the study: the characterization of the variation in forested and non-forested vegetative types across all areas of the parks as defined by tree species, stem density, stand age, tree diameter size class, crown cover by species, standing dead trees, woody debris accumulation, dominant understory species in forested areas, and species cover in non-forested areas. The purpose of the field inventory plots in particular were two-fold. First, the inventory plots provided data that were used to provide and unbiased estimate of vegetative characteristics throughout each national park. Plot data was summarized within each unique vegetation "type" identified from computer classification of Landsat TM data. Second, data obtained from the inventory plots assisted in the location, establishment, and describing of both field accuracy assessment sites as well as photo-interpreted computer classification training sites. The specific need addressed through this study was that of designing and developing a comprehensive, detailed and accurate GIS database describing the diverse vegetation, topography and landforms in the parks in order to improve management of park ecosystems and wildlife species. The vegetation information developed through this study, in particular, is of sufficient detail to describe structural components and biodiversity attributes necessary to defining wildlife habitat and understanding forest stand dynamics.
