Service Description: Developed to support the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) / U.S. Forest Service (USFS) Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG) Monitoring Framework, the Biophysical Settings Sagebrush Base data layer is a binary raster comprised of pixels representing 28 ecological systems which were determined to have the capability of supporting sagebrush vegetation while also providing suitable seasonal habitat for GRSG. Sagebrush vegetation was defined as sagebrush species or subspecies that provide habitat for GRSG and are also included in the Sage-Grouse Habitat Assessment Framework (Stiver et al., 2014). The resultant data layer was derived from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) LANDFIRE Version 1.2 Biophysical Settings (BpS) vegetation data product (http://www.landfire.gov). BpS represents the natural plant communities that may have been dominant on the landscape prior to Euro-American settlement, and is determined by both the current biophysical environment and an approximation of the historical disturbance regime. BpS is composed of vegetation map units based upon NatureServe’s terrestrial ecological systems classification, which is a nationally consistent set of mid-scale ecological units (Comer et al., 2003). These data are provided by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) “as is” and might contain errors or omissions. The User assumes the entire risk associated with its use of these data and bears all responsibility in determining whether these data are fit for the User’s intended use. The information contained in these data is dynamic and may change over time. The data are not better than the sources from which they were derived, and both scale and accuracy may vary across the data set. These data might not have the accuracy, resolution, completeness, timeliness, or other characteristics appropriate for applications that potential users of the data may contemplate. The User is encouraged to carefully consider the content of the metadata file associated with these data. These data are neither legal documents nor land surveys, and must not be used as such. Official records may be referenced at most BLM offices. Please report any errors in the data to the BLM office from which it was obtained. The BLM should be cited as the data source in any products derived from these data. Any Users wishing to modify the data should describe the types of modifications they have performed. The User should not misrepresent the data, nor imply that changes made were approved or endorsed by BLM. This data may be updated by the BLM without notification.
