Jonathan Dunn, AECOM 20211130 Vegetation - Fallbrook Naval Weapons Station - ds2958 vector digital data https://filelib.wildlife.ca.gov/Public/BDB/GIS/BIOS/Public_Datasets/2900_2999/ds2958.zip https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/BIOS This mapping effort was conducted following the guidelines described in Vegetation Mapping Protocol for Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Fallbrook ("Protocol"; USDON 2017). Four-band (color with color IR) aerial images were collected by GeoTerra, Inc. during June 20 and 21, 2015. All flight plans and airspace access were authorized through Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton Range Control (Longrifle). All image acquisition, processing, and ortho-rectification were conducted by GeoTerra, Inc. Final orthophotos were delivered with a resolution of 0.25 foot. This set of images served as the visual layer for photo-interpretation.The classification was generated by AECOM. AECOM conducted vegetation sampling consistent with NVC Standard methods throughout NWSSB-DF to define the subset of alliances and associations that occurred within the mapping area. Further details, and the full classification, can be found inVegetation Mapping Protocol for Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Fallbrook ("Protocol"; USDON 2017).No thematic accuracy assessment was performed, however field verification was conducted to establish photo-signature training for each alliance and association. Approximately 37 percent (accounting for 67 percent of the total mapped area) of all polygons and vegetation assignments were field verified. This vegetation map is the result of a vegetation effort conducted at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Fallbrook (NWSSB DF) in 2015 through 2016. For a discussion of the map in the context of prior mapping at the installation, see the mapping report. Vegetation mapping is conducted periodically at this installation to inform environmental compliance in support of the Navys mission. NWSSB DF is an 8,852 acre installation in northern San Diego County, California. Rarity Ranking Rarity ranks for various types in this map have been updated utilizing the NatureServe Conservation Status Assessments Rank Calculator Version 3.186, and are current as of December 1st, 2021. Rarity ranks are subject to change due to changing threats and trends and as ranking methodologies are further refined.

Ranks are based on a set of criteria including the rarity of the community (extent and occupancy), the threats that the community is subject to, and any known trends in the quality, size, or quantity of stands within the state. Ranks go from G1 which is critically imperiled/has very few occurrences to G5, when a community is demonstrably secure due to broad distribution with area not subject to threats. Ranks G1-G3 are considered sensitive. Ranks are current as of the publication date or update date. http://www.natureserve.org/sites/default/files/publications/files/natureserveconservationstatusmethodology_jun12_0.pdf and https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/VegCAMP/Natural-Communities StateRank The state rarity ranking of the plant community mapped (ranks are available for all California alliances, and some associations). Ranks are based on a set of criteria including the rarity of the community (extent and occupancy), the threats that the community is subject to, and any known trends in the quality, size, or quantity of stands within the state. Ranks go from S1 which is critically imperiled/has very few occurrences to S5, when a community is demonstrably secure due to security globally. Ranks S1-S3 are considered sensitive.
