#AIM

I’ve been a bit busy, so I’m just getting to my first map challenge of the month lines. For it, I’m using my favorite dataset, the Bureau of Land Management’s, Assessment, Inventory, and Monitoring dataset. Here is total foliar cover for every point completed in the Western Lower 48 states. You can find the data set here.

I don't put a lot of what I do at work here. I try to keep work at work and a lot of what I post here is for fun. Lately though, I've been producing some visualizations from Assessment Inventory and Monitoring (AIM) data that I think are worth sharing.

Similar to my post last week, we are again looking at another AIM data visualization. The last visualization was created from the raw AIM data, pulled from ArcGIS online. This visualization is pulled from terradat, AIMs online data repository for QA/QCed data, and looks at cover over three populations of Gunnison sage-grouse in Colorado, the San Miguel population, the Gunnison population and the Pinon Mesa population.

This is a series of notes that works with the DIMA database. The DIMA was produced by the Jornada Research Center for the Assessment Inventory and Monitoring framework.
