Abstract or Description

This map contrasts deer wintering sites with areas of human-induced forest fragmentation and conserved lands in Maine. Fragmentation is represented as the percentage of remaining forest cover.

Source Data Note

The forest layer is clipped from a national dataset from the National Atlas website (nationalatlas.gov), while the data for roads, conserved lands, and deer wintering areas are from the Maine Office of GIS. All data is projected using NAD 1983 UTM Zone 19N.
