Description
This EnviroAtlas dataset represents the percentage of land area that is classified as tree canopy cover using the National Land Cover Database 2016 USFS Tree Canopy Cover dataset for each 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Streams were derived from the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) High Resolution dataset obtained June 2020. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).
