Description

In May 2014, staff at the San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge SBNWR requested the production of a vegetation map to document the ongoing restoration of the refuge. Utilizing objectbased image analysis OBIA a 9 class vegetation map was produced. This was a piloted effort to develop a simple, repeatable and lowcost land cover mapping framework that could be carried out on other refuges. Thus, iterative steps were taken and refined as part of the mapping process. This document has a Digital Object Identifier: http:dx.doi.org10.7944W3WC7M
