In conjunction with changes within the Federal Geographic Data Committee, National Geospatial Data Asset (FGDC NGDA) Biodiversity and Ecosystems Theme, the theme’s leadership proposed and had accepted a formal name change for GAP’s National Land Cover Dataset. The new name, GAP/LANDFIRE National Terrestrial Ecosystems, conveys the ecological richness of the map legend and the ongoing collaboration between the National GAP and LANDFIRE Programs.
