Published by National Park Service | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 25, 2026 | Last Modified: 2012-12-01T00:00:00Z
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. Collectively, the MOCR spatial database layer is composed of 83 polygons covering 173.0 acres, with an average polygon size of 5.4 acres. Map classes representing natural/semi-natural types in the NVCS apply to 49 polygons (59.0% of all polygons) covering 128.7 acres (74.4 % of entire area) with an average polygon size of 2.4 acres. Of these natural/semi-natural types, the Early to Mid-Successional Loblolly Pine Forest dominates, both in frequency of polygons (22), and in size (57.6 acres). A close second, in terms of size, is the Atlantic Coastal Plain Bald-cypress-Blackgum Swamp which covers 40.6 acres. The Early to Mid-Successional Loblolly Pine Forest dominates drier upland sites on the eastern section of the park; whereas, the Atlantic Coastal Plain Bald-cypress-Blackgum Swamp is commonly found along the floodplain of Moores Creek.
