How to Participate ›› Vegetation Modeling ›› Workshops Participants in vegetation modeling workshops collaborate to describe and quantitatively model vegetation dynamics – such as succession and fire – for biophysical settings (BpS) identified in each LANDFIRE mapping zone. Workshop attendees are trained in the use of the Vegetation Dynamics Development Tool (VDDT) – available at www.essa.com/vddt – and spend 2 to 5 days modeling in VDDT and documenting model assumptions in ModelTracker Database. Vegetation modeling is coordinated by a regional lead for each modeling zone. Contact your regional lead to find out about vegetation modeling in your area or see the list of upcoming workshops below. You can also download the vegetation modeling manual for more information on the vegetation modeling process. Upcoming Workshops
Read the workshop announcement. Intended Workshop Audience Workshop participants learn about the LANDFIRE Project, gain experience using the quantitative state and transition modeling software program Vegetation Dynamics Development Tool (VDDT) – available at www.essa.com/vddt, and work with an interagency team of regional experts. Participants should be:
Lessons Learned The LANDFIRE Rapid Assessment "Lessons Learned" publications document the work completed at the majority of the Rapid Assessment workshops and the Rapid Assessment Rollout Conference. They have been created by The Nature Conservancy to communicate modeling and mapping progress, to recognize partners engaged in the process, and to identify areas for improvement.
