High-Resolution Vegetation Community Maps, Toolik Lake Area, Alaska, 2013-2015
This dataset contains vegetation community maps at 20 cm resolution for three landscapes near the Toolik Lake research area in the northern foothills of the Brooks Range, Alaska, USA. The maps were built using a Random Forest modeling approach using predictor layers derived from airborne lidar data and high-resolution digital airborne imagery collected in 2013, and vegetation community training data collected from 800 reference field plots across the lidar footprints in 2014 and 2015. Vegetation community descriptions were based on the commonly used classifications of existing Toolik area vegetation maps.
