  Description:
    Abstract: Glacier Bay National Park spatially referenced vegetation ground plot data collected in 1985 by National Park vegetation specialists. Vegetative species information and related canopy cover data was collected from ground plots. All plots have been referenced on Alaska High Altitude Color Infrared photography at a 1:63,360 scale. The purpose of the collection is to provide vegetation ground data.
