Cheatgrass mapping in Squirrel Creek Wildfire, WY in 2014
This data bundle contains some of the inputs, all of the processing instructions and all outputs from two VisTrails/SAHM workflow. These models specifically include field data of locations with >40% cover of cheatgrass (presence) and <40% cover of cheatgrass (absence). Predictors included rasters derived from LandSat 8 imagery (_archive_FinalModel_revised) or from a digital elevation model (_archive_TopoOnly_revised). Details about all inputs are included in the associated manuscript.
The three bundle documentation files in each data bundle are:
1) _archive_bundle_metadata.xml' (this file) which contains FGDC metadata describing the archive bundle.
2) _archive_raster_inputs.csv' a list of the raster inputs that were used to generate these model results. These are not included in the archive bundle due to size constraints but are identified in this file as well as the metadata document.
3) _archive_workflow_FinalModel.vt' where FinalModel is the name of the history node being archive in this bundle. Contains a VisTrails/SAHM workflow document which contains the workflow that was used to create these outputs.
The remaining data files are the intermediate workflow products as well as the complete spatial and diagnostic model outputs.

Using multi-date satellite imagery to monitor invasive grass species distribution in post-wildfire landscapes: An iterative, adaptable approach that employs open-source data and software
Among the most pressing concerns of land managers in post-wildfire landscapes are the establishment and spread of invasive species. Land managers need accurate maps of invasive species cover for targeted management post-disturbance that are easily transferable across space and time. In this study, we sought to develop an iterative, replicable methodology based on limited invasive species occurrencAuthorsAmanda M. West, Paul H. Evangelista, Catherine S.
