This dataset integrates the geometry and attributes of several Land Status Record System (LSRS) datasets into a single layer to allow the summation of Forest Service ownership and wilderness acreages along multiple administrative and political boundaries. The layer is sourced from the SurfaceOwnership, NFSLandUnit, and WildernessStatus layers and subdivided along geopolitical and administrative boundaries to enable acreage summation. The dataset is updated annually in coordination with the production of the Land Area Report (LAR) to ensure that acreages in the dataset match those published in the LAR. The primary purpose is to support the Forests by the Numbers Dashboard.
The current LAR report can be found at: https://www.fs.usda.gov/land/staff/lar-index.shtml |

| description:
|
This dataset fulfills a request from multiple regional units as an operational aid that provides an authoritative companion to the Land Areas Report sliced along multiple administrative and political boundaries. This dataset powers a dynamic and interactive dashboard called Forests by the Numbers. The Forests by the Numbers series is expected to continue with other assets (roads, waterways, recreation areas, etc) to act as a quick reference for internal operations and the public. This dataset covers National Forest System Lands including federally owned units of forest, range, and related land consisting of national forests, purchase units, national grasslands, land utilization project areas, experimental forest areas, experimental range areas, designated experimental areas, other land areas, water areas, and interests in lands that are administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service or designated for administration through the Forest Service. Each polygon is attributed with ownership (USDA Forest Service or Non-FS), wilderness status, Forest Service Administrative jurisdiction and geopolitical membership. |
