This dataset combines vegetated elevation with the Unvegetated to Vegetated Ratio (UVVR) to classify marsh management suggestions as restore, protect, monitor and evaluate. For each CMU, an ELEVATION_UVVR field was calculated according to the thresholds on the chart below (elevation high >0.4m, elevation low <= 0.4m, UVVR low <= 0.15, UVVR High > 0.15). This field is labeled management_strategy in the MPI attribute table.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Last updated: 03/30/2026</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>
