Vue NLCD adjustment factor
I am doing a project for South Louisiana and wanted to adjust the tree canopy data, however, the region that I am interested in is labeled 96 which does not show up on the adjustment table. How should I handle that?

Vue NLCD Adjustment Factor zone 96, 97 & 98
Zones 96, 97 & 98 do not have adjustment factors and may not have been identified as separate zones during the research to determine the adjustment factors.
As a work around, I would refer back to the zone map used to derive the adjustment factor for these areas which can be accessed in Vue (Adjustment Factor Information) or online at the i-Tree website. http://www.itreetools.org/vue/resources ... k_NLCD.pdf
The map in the Nowak/Greenfield article on page 387 shows that zones 98 & 97 are within zone 37. Zone 96 is within zone 46. We will look into updating the map to correspond with the adjustment factor data available in an upcoming release to avoid this discrepancy.
Thanks,
Al
