Description:

Abstract:

This data represents areas of forest damage due to insect infestation,

fire, flood, landslides, and windthrow. The information was

collected by aerial surveys, in cooperation, by both the USFS, Forest Health

Protection (FHP) and ADNR, Div. of Forestry.

Surveys are conducted primarily in July and August so that pest "signatures" may

be identified during the optimal period for symptom development of ocular estimation.

The aerial survey is coordinated with known pest outbreaks so that the maximum extent

of recent bark beetle damage (fading trees) and insect defoliation (discoloration,

foliage loss) patterns may be determined. Aerial survey flights are termed as

"local" if they can be completed within 1 day from the survey base and "regional'

if more than 1 day is required to complete the survey reconnaissance.

Purpose:

This data is collected to monitor forest health for the State of Alaska and

to identify insect and some disease pest trends. Accuracy and repeatability is not

duplicatable due to the nature of aerial survey data collection. This data should

be used as an initial identification of pest areas or landscape level planning but further

surveys or ground truthing is necessary for area planning or management.

More specific delineation of pest damage boundaries (polygons) may be obtained by later

ground assessments or approximation of several individual years of mapping data.

However, precise timing of the surveys for maximum symptom development is not always

possible so that the aerial extent of damage generally cannot be accurately mapped

for all pests. Also, many pest symptoms are delayed from the time of actual damage

so that visual symptoms do not appear for several months after the initial damage.

In the case of some bark beetle damage, (e.g., spruce beetle) symptoms of "red-topped"

or "fading red" trees do not show until the season after initial attack. Precise

estimates of the extent of bark beetle damage often required a corroborative ground

assessment to determine the extent of current season attacks. Also, some defoliator

damage is not readily apparent from the air or occur outside of the aerial survey window

of time so that the actual extent (acreage) of damage cannot be accurately determined without

extensive ground sampling

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Attribute accuracy is tested by visually comparing

the source with hard copy printouts or interactive display of forest damage

data on a computer. Frequency tables also verified standard coding.

Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon topology present. Polygons crossing quadrangle boundaries were edge matched.

Completeness_Report:

Surveys in Alaska are meandering surveys predominantly following drainages.

Approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of the state is surveyed each year. The flightline file

represents the flight path and extent of visibility.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Surveys were conducted by USFS FHP personnel in cooperation

with ADNR entomologist. The southeast Alaska portion was surveyed

by Dustin Wittwer, Mark Schulz, (FHP) and Roger Burnside, ADNR.

Eastern interior Alaska by Ken Zogas and Kathleen Matthews, FHP. Western

interior Alaska by Ken Zogas, FHP, and Roger Burnside, ADNR. The Kenai Penninsula was

primarily surveyed by Kathleen Matthews and Roger Burnside with portions of the Kenai

surveyed by Ken Zogas. The Anchorage Bowl was surveyed by Roger

Burnside, Kathleen Matthews, and Ken Zogas.

The data is recorded at the time of capture on 1:250,000 scale USGS

topographic-bathymetric series maps. Data on all surveys is collected from a Cessna 206

at 500 - 1000 ft. above ground level (AGL) or from a Beaver at

500-1000 ft AGL.

Damage areas on the base maps are transferred to

georeferenced mylar overlays by FHP personnel. The mylars are verified

by K. Matthews and D. Wittwer, FHP, as to accuracy of rendition, location, and coding.

These files were interactively verified with the mylars for attribute and topological

accuracy.

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

Areas of damage are delineated on the base maps as polygons and labeled with

an agent code and for some insects a severity code. Inherent in many agent

codes is the host species. The first three letters of each polygon label identify

the damage, causal agent, and host species. The fourth letter, if present,

identifies severity.

Acres for each polygon are calculated by dividing the area of a polygon by

4046.8564 which equals 1 square meter. Acres are rounded for display.

Damage/Causal Agent/Host Codes used in the 2000 data set are:

ALM - Aspen Leafminer Defoliation

ALR - Alder Leaf Roller Defoliation

ASD - Aspen Defoliation - causal agent unknown

BID - Birch Defoliation - causal agent not identified

BLM - Birch Leafminer Defoliation

BLR - Birch Leaf Roller Defoliation

CLB - Cottonwood leaf beetle defoliation

CWD - Cottonwood defoliation - causal agent not identified

FIR - Fire mortality (note this is not all fire damage for the state)

FLO - Flood or high water mortality - host not identified

HSF - Hemlock sawfly defoliation

IPS - Ips beetle mortality or topkill

LAS - Larch sawfly defoliation

LAT - Large Aspen Tortrix defoliation

OUT - polygon with no damage inside of damage polygon

POD - Porcupine damage - host not identified

SBW - Spruce budworm defoliation

SLD - Landslide or avalanche damage

SNA - Spruce needle aphid defoliation

SNR - Spruce needle rust discoloration

SPB - Spruce bark beetle mortality

WLM - Willow leafminer defoliation

WTH - Windthrow mortality - host not identified

Severity Codes used in this data set:

Light = < 10% of the host species within the polygon were affected.

Moderate = 11% to 30% of the host species within the polygon were affected.

High = > 31% of the host species within the polygon were affected.
