| description:
|
The points in this shapefile were created to identify potential sample sites for biological monitoring by the National Ecological Obsevatory Network. The points were created by stratifying vegetation types from the National Land Cover Database (NLCD) version 2006. Points were distributed in each vegetation type using a spatially balanced system implemented in GIS called the Reversed Randomized Quadrant Recursive Raster (RRQRR) technique. Subsequently, the points went through a remotely sensed ground-truth procedure to validate the vegetation type. The actual shape and size of the sampling unit is not depicted in this file.The points in this file have been remotely validated by NEON specialists and have been determined to meet NEON criteria. The current set of points are an overestimation included for contingency purposes.
