Title: Carbon Opportunity Cost of Present-Day Pasturelands and Animal Feed Crops
Contributors:- Raster data
- 2020
Summary: This multi-band raster data represents estimates of carbon opportunity cost. The data is captured at a resolution of 5 arcminutes over the global domain and is derived from data collected approximately over the past two decades (2000-2020). The pixel values measure estimates in tonnes of potential vegetation per hectare that are suppressed by pasturelands and present-day feed crops. The bands represent three estimates of carbon in potential vegetation: median, low (5th percentile), and high (95th percentile). This data is released with an Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license. Users may cite this collection with https://doi.org/10.17609/q5pe-7r68/.

Contributors:- Raster data
- 2020
Summary: This multi-band raster data represents hectacres of pastureland that are currently occupied by feed crops. The pixel band ranges represent two estimated values: areas sourced from the lowest carbon areas and areas sourced from the highest carbon areas. The data is captured at a resolution of 5 arcminutes over the global domain. This data is released with an Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license.

Title: Distribution Maps and Models for 13 Invasive Plants in Minnesota
Contributors:- Raster data
- 2019
Summary: This dataset consists of raster (.tif) and map (.png) files for 13 invasive plants in Minnesota. Species included consist of: common buckthorn, glossy buckthorn, multiflora rose, garlic mustard, Canada thistle, common tansy, leafy spurge, spotted knapweed, wild parsnip, purple loosestrife, Japanese knotweed, narrowleaf bittercress, and plumeless thistle. The rasters (.tif files) included here consist of the output of species distribution modeling (SDM) conducted for each species; these files depict the mean cross-model and cross-assumption distribution estimates for each species, on a scale of 0 to 1. Values near 0 indicate low likelihood of finding the species there, or low habitat suitability, and values near 1 represent a high likelihood of finding the species. The maps (.png files) included here depict the same information, but in a static non-GIS compatible format.

Title: White-tailed deer density estimates across the eastern United States (2008)
Contributors:- Polygon data ; Vector data
- 2016
Summary: In 2008, the Quality Deer Management Association (QDMA) developed a map of white-tailed deer density with information obtained from state wildlife agencies. The map contains information from 2001 to 2005, with noticeable changes since the development of the first deer density map made by QDMA in 2001. The University of Minnesota, Forest Ecosystem Health Lab and the US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service-Northern Research Station have digitized the deer density map to provide information on the status and trends of forest health across the eastern United States. The QDMA spatial map depicting deer density (deer per square mile) was digitized across the eastern United States. Estimates of deer density were: White = rare, absent, or urban area with unknown population, Green = less than 15 deer per square mile, Yellow = 15 to 30 deer per square mile, Orange = 30 to 40 deer per square mile, or Red = greater than 45 deer per square mile. These categories represent coarse deer density levels as identified in the QDMA report in 2009 and should not be used to represent current or future deer densities across the study region.

Title: Map of the City of New York extending northward to Fiftieth St. (Raster Image)
Contributors:- Raster data
- 2015
Summary: This layer is a georeferenced image of a map of buildings and lots in New York City published in 1852 (2nd ed.). This map is a precursor of the fire maps first published by Perris in 1852, later by Sanborn and Bromley. Also shows wards, wharves, etc. The historic map layers in the Google Earth Rumsey Map Collection have been selected by David Rumsey from his large collection of historical maps, as well as some from other collections with which he collaborates. All the maps contain rich information about the past and represent a sampling of time periods, scales, and cartographic art, resulting in visual history stories that only old maps can tell. Each map has been georeferenced by Rumsey, thus creating unique digital map images that allow the old maps to appear in their correct places on the modern globe. Some of the maps fit perfectly in their modern spaces, while othersgenerally earlier period mapsreveal interesting geographical misconceptions of their time. Cultural features on the maps can be compared to the modern satellite views using the slider bars to adjust transparency. The result is an exploration of time as well as space, a marriage of historic cartographic masterpieces with innovative contemporary software tools.

Title: Abundance Estimates of the Pacific Salmon Conservation Assessment Database, 1978-2008
Contributors:- Polygon data
- 2009
Summary: This dataset is a visualization of abundance estimates for six species of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.): Chinook, Chum, Pink, Steelhead, Sockeye, and Coho in catchment areas of the Northern Pacific Ocean, including Canada, China, Japan, Russia, and the United States. Catchment polygons included in this layer range in dates from 1978 to 2008. Sources dating from 1950 to 2005, including published literature and agency reports were consulted in order to create these data. In addition to abundance estimates, the PCSA database includes information on distribution, diversity, run-timings, land cover/land-use, dams, hatcheries, data sources, drainages, and administrative categories and provides a consistent format for comparing watersheds across the range of wild Pacific salmon.The Conservation Science team at the Wild Salmon Center has created a geographic database, the Pacific Salmon Conservation Assessment (PSCA) that covers the whole range of wild Pacific Salmon. By providing estimations of salmon abundance and diversity, these data can provide opportunities to conduct range-wide analysis for conservation planning, prioritizing, and assessments. The primary goal in developing the PSCA database is to guide proactive international salmon conservation.
