Biophysical assessment for indemnity selection of federal lands in Colorado: Land cover types

The “Biophysical assessment for indemnity selection of federal lands in Colorado: Land cover types” dataset includes the area of land cover types for 89 Indemnity Units, comprising 339 parcels of federal lands. These lands, currently managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), are under consideration for transfer of ownership to the State of Colorado in compensation for federal lands not available for transfer at the time of statehood. The dataset includes the area (in hectares) of each Indemnity Unit in each of six land cover classes: aquatic , grassland , shrubland and steppe , savanna and woodland , mountain forest and alpine zone , and sparsely vegetated communities. The dataset format is a comma-separated values (CSV) text file, which can be joined with the “Indemnity Unit locations” dataset (via the IU_Code) or used independently.
