Service Description: This metadata is for the vegetation and land-use geo-spatial database for Fort Larned National Historic Site and surrounding areas. This project is authorized as part of the USGS/NPS Vegetation Mapping Program. The program is being administered by the Core Science Systems (CSS) of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in conjunction with the National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring Program. The USGS/CSS is responsible for data delivery and quality control. This mapping effort was performed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's (USBR) Remote Sensing and GIS Group, Technical Service Center, Denver, Colorado and NatureServe (formally The Nature Conservancy). The purposes of this specfic mapping effort are varied and include the following: 1) provide support for NPS Resource Management, 2) promote vegetation-related research, 3) provide support for NPS Planning and Compliance, 4) add to the information base for NPS Interpretation, 5) provide a vegetation baseline inventory for the Park, 6) provide information needed for NPS Fire Program, and 7) assist in overall NPS Operations.
