dataset
posted on 2025-01-22, 00:17 authored by Steven K. Filippelli, Karen G. Schleeweis, Mark D. Nelson, Patrick A. Fekety, Jody C. VogelerThis data publication contains thirty-five (35) georeferenced (GeoTIFF) raster files containing the percent tree canopy cover predicted for the Great Lakes region for each year from 1985 to 2019. Predictions were made using Landsat imagery and topographic data from the National Elevation Dataset.
These data are intended to be used for monitoring changes in tree cover and related environmental applications such as habitat modeling.
