LAND_COVER_PRESETTLEMENT_IDNR_IN.SHP was created to provide a digital coverage of generalized presettlement vegetation types of Indiana, circa 1820. The original published paper map from 1965 (Lindsey) was digitized by personnel of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) in June of 2016. Presettlement Land Cover (IDNR) - Shows five generalized presettlement vegetation types of Indiana, circa 1816. Categories are based on original land survey records and modern soil maps of counties. Data were provided by personnel of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Nature Preserves on June 16, 2016 |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>LAND_COVER_PRESETTLEMENT_IDNR_IN.SHP is a polygon shapefile showing generalized presettlement vegetation types of Indiana, circa 1820. The work was based on original land survey records and modern soil maps of counties in Indiana. The original published paper map from 1965 (Lindsey) provides five generalized classifications of vegetation types, and the article that contains the map offers descriptions for each classification:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Classification Description</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Quercus - Carya "Oak-Hickory" forest type</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Fagus - Acer "Beech-Maple" forest type</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Fagus - Quercus - Acer - Carya "Mixed" forest type</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Wetlands Wetlands, marshes, swamps, & bogs vegetation (including Wet Prairie)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Dry Prairie Dry Prairie vegetation (tallgrass lands) </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
