Description
The Arctic - Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) has developed two standardized spatial data products to expedite coordination of research activities and to facilitate data interoperability. The ABoVE Study Domain encompasses the Arctic and boreal regions of Alaska, USA, and the western provinces of Canada, North America. Core and Extended study regions have been designated within this Domain and are provided in a vector representation (Shapefile), a raster representation (GeoTIFF at 1,000-meter spatial resolution), and a NetCDF file. A standard Reference Grid System has been developed to cover the entire Study Domain and extends to the eastern portion of North America. This Reference Grid is provided as nested polygon grids at scales of 240, 30, and 5-meter spatial resolution. The 5-meter grid is new in Version 2. Note that the designated standard projection for all ABoVE products is the Canadian Albers Equal Area projection.
