This Department of Interior grant is for advancing national vegetation classification and mapping. The project focuses on developing a vegetation classification hierarchy in Alaska, improving ecological understanding. A critical aspect involves evaluating and enhancing the Landfire auto-key process for consistent national vegetation data. Additionally, the grant supports exploring broader national mapping applications using these classification systems. This non-competitive award is issued as a task agreement to NatureServe, aligning with Department of Interior policies for such procurements. It aims to strengthen foundational environmental data for better resource management and analysis nationwide.
