There are currently 3 major "sets" of spatial data available for the Niwot Ridge LTER site. The first set includes high resolution vegetation data collected for the Niwot Ridge LTER Geographic Information System (GIS) that has been compiled for ease of use into an ArcView 2.1 project, while the second includes land cover information collected for the Niwot Ridge LTER Green Lakes Valley GIS database. The third "set" consists of a Niwot Ridge LTER Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and digital orthophotos at 3 scales.
In addition, distributed snow depth images and data are available for 1997 and 1998.
