GOMLC7 data is available from the Maine Office of GIS Data Catalog for Maine counties in GeoTIFF format at http://megis.maine.gov/catalog/catalog.asp. A .jpeg file is included in the download to display the colors and the classification descriptions that they represent. MEGIS GeoTIFFs for this dataset contain an embedded colormap of USFW/GOMP assigned colors for the full classification. GRID format, a full schema colormap gomlc7.txt, ArcView .avl, and ArcGIS .lyr files are also available from MEGIS and from USFW. Online Linkage: http://megis.maine.gov/catalog/ Larger Work Citation: Citation Information: Originator: Gulf of Maine Program Title: (GOMHMP)Gulf of Maine Habitat Mapping Project Geospatial Data Presentation Form: document Publication Information: Publication Place: Falmouth ME Publisher: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Northeast Region Description: Abstract: GOMLC7 provides land cover data from five interpretations of Landsat data, and wetland cover from photo-interpretations were combined to yield a 31-class raster (grid) digital dataset, "GOMLC7", for the Gulf of Maine watershed. Themes of higher resolution or data quality were overlaid on more generic or older data to produce a product having best available interpretation for each cover class. This is projected as UTM zone 19, NAD83, dimensions in meters, and has a 30m cell size. For details see the narrative: . Purpose: Land cover information was used, in combination with other information, to identify habitats for species of concern in the Gulf of Maine. Supplemental Information: The data is available in the Maine GIS Data Catalog in .TIF format. GRID format, a full schema colormap gomlc7.txt, ArcView .avl, and ArcGIS .lyr files are also available from MEGIS and from USFW, see point of contact below.

Any secondary distribution must have this documentation appended. Use Constraints: This map may not accurately portray land cover at a local scale, or most recent conditions; it is intended for use in identifying habitat suitability. This information is meant to be used for habitat protection in the Gulf of Maine watershed as identified by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Please note these data do not represent all important habitat for all USFWS trust species. For instance, additional habitat information exists for Maine coastal nesting seabird islands and Atlantic Salmon habitat. Also, please be aware that other information regarding important habitat may exist in your area of interest and you are encouraged to contact the appropriate agencies or organizations for that information, for example Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, Maine Natural Areas Program, The Nature Conservancy.Users must assume responsibility in determining the usability of this data for their purposes. Digital maps retain the accuracy and currentness of their source materials. The best use of data mapped at scales of 1:500,000 and 1:250,000 is in statewide planning and studies; at 1:100,000 in regional planning and studies; at 1:62,500 and 1:24,000 in detailed studies and local planning; and at 1:12,000 and 1:5,000 or larger scales in parcel level studies and detailed local planning. Please check sources, scale, accuracy, currentness and other available information.

Standard Order Process: Digital Form: Digital Transfer Information: Format Name: GeoTIFF Format Version Number: 5.0 Format Specification: Tagged Image File Format ASCII File Structure: Case Sensitive: false Format Information Content: The following information is excerpted from Arc/Info help: TIFF images may contain georeferencing information in header tags defined by the GeoTIFF standard. ARC/INFO will read the Baseline GeoTIFF tags ModelTiePointTag, ModelPixelScaleTag, and ModelTransformationTag. ARC/INFO will write only the ModelTiePointTag and ModelPixelScaleTag tags. When writing a TIFF image, ARC/INFO will output the GeoTIFF tags if the data source, such as a grid or image with world file, contains georeferencing information. ModelTiePointTag: Gives a pixel coordinate and corresponding map coordinate. ModelPixelScaleTag: Gives the dimensions of a pixel in map units. ModelTransformationTag: Specifies a mathematical transformation from pixel space to map space. ARC/INFO currently uses a simplified version of the matrix which conforms to Baseline GeoTIFF.
