LANDFIRE 2016 Remap Existing Vegetation Height (EVH) Micronesia

Metadata Updated: January 6, 2026

LANDFIRE's (LF) 2016 Remap (Remap) Existing Vegetation Height (EVH) represents the average height of the dominant vegetation for a 30m cell. EVH is produced separately for tree, shrub, and herbaceous lifeforms using training data depicting the average height weighted by species cover and Existing Vegetation Type (EVT) lifeform. Decision tree models using field reference data, lidar, Landsat, and ancillary data are developed separately for each lifeform, then lifeform specific height class layers are merged along with land cover into a single EVH product. EVH ranges are continuous for herbaceous lifeform ranging from 0.1 to 1 meter with decimeter increments, 0.1 to 3 meters for shrub lifeform, and 1 to 99 meters for tree lifeform. If the height values of each lifeform exceed the continuous value range, they are binned into the appropriate maximum height class. EVH is then reconciled through QA/QC measures to ensure lifeform is synchronized with both Existing Vegetation Cover (EVC) and EVT products. Disturbance events not visible in the source imagery are accounted for by using LF Remap Annual Disturbance products. LF uses EVH as an input for LF Remap Fuel Vegetation Cover (FVH).
