Summary
Abstract: Digital cartographic data is provided on the Yukon Flats National Wildlife
Refuge. The data set contains land cover classifications derived from Landsat
MSS data and elevation, slope and aspect data derived from DEM data. Data can
be keyed on a U.S. Geological Survey 1:250,000 quadrangle basis. Spatial
referencing is by 50 meter grid cells. Data source is Landsat MSS data and
Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data. The data set contains 70 records.

Limited documentation and users guide are available. Data is organized by 7
1/2 ' or 15 ' quads.
