  Vegetation maps depict the distribution of vegetation communities across the landscape, and provide information about the physical characteristics and natural history of a region. Increased interest in the reclamation and restoration of disturbed areas, and in the interaction of humans and the landscape, has spurred research and mapping of the historic and modern vegetation of Wisconsin and other states, as well as across broad regions. Vegetation maps thus provide valuable information about the environment on local and regional scales.
