Bonanza Creek LTER Study Sites, Roads, and other Locations: GIS/Spatial Data

The list of study sites, meteorological stations and locations of interest that are shown on the Bonanza Creek Long Term Ecological Research site (BNZ LTER) internet map server (IMS, available at http://www.lter.uaf.edu/ims_intro.cfm) is generated from the LTER study sites database. The information is converted into a shapefile and posted to the IMS. Some study sites shown on the main LTER website will not appear on the IMS because they do not have location coordinates. In all cases the most up-to-date information will be found on the (study sites website ).

The spatial information represented on the IMS is available to the public according to the restrictions outlined in the LTER data policy. The dataset represented here consists of the map layers shown on the IMS. The information consists of shapefiles in Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) format. Users of this dataset should be aware that the contents are dynamic. Portions of the information shown on the IMS are derived from the Bonanza Creek LTER databank and are constantly being updated.
