Description:
Abstract:
This shapefile represents the boundaries of Richmond National Battlefield Park (RICH). The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Natural Heritage obtained it from Kristen Allen, NRM Specialist, Richmond National Battlefield Park on June 3, 2004.
Purpose:
This shapefile was used to provide a general representation of the RICH boundary for the vegetation classification and mapping project completed by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Natural Heritage in June 2008.
