Service Description: This dataset shows the locations of various types of vegetation surveys taken to support the classification and mapping of vegetation throughout the State of California. Most surveys will have a vegetation name that is either accepted by California Department of Fish and Wildlifes Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program (VegCAMP) and the California Native Plant Society (CNPS), or is undergoing a vetting process. The majority of the surveys have associated plant cover data related to each point. The goal of this dataset is to share ground based vegetation observations and instances of vegetation at the finest classification level (association), as most of the published maps of vegetation are at a coarser classification level (alliance). The surveys also have their related species cover values associated with them. This dataset is not comprehensive for California, as surveys from recent projects are in the process of having plants keyed, undergoing QC, and being classified.

Description: Vegetation surveys included in this dataset have been collected through various vegetation classification and mapping projects, and some were also collected independently from these kinds of projects. Reports for these projects can be found in CDFWs document library see https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/documents/ContextDocs.aspx?cat=VegCAMP. Links to specific projects are provided with project descriptions below. The surveys are of various types, but many follow the rapid assessment/releve protocol which can be seen here: https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/VegCAMP/Publications-and-ProtocolsThere are associated disturbance and other environmental data taken for many of these surveys that are not included in this dataset. There are also associated photos. These are available upon request.
