Elevation, slope, aspect, and vegetation classes for 1972 and 2012

Three sub-areas covering a total projected area of about 14 ha in the western Chugach Mountains of southcentral Alaska were digitized and attributed by vegetation class for 1972 and 2012 from a series of orthophotos. A 1m pixel digital elevation model provided elevation, slope, and aspect (DEM varia...

Description
Summary:Three sub-areas covering a total projected area of about 14 ha in the western Chugach Mountains of southcentral Alaska were digitized and attributed by vegetation class for 1972 and 2012 from a series of orthophotos. A 1m pixel digital elevation model provided elevation, slope, and aspect (DEM variables). This file contains the DEM attributes and vegetation classification for each 1m pixel.
