Specifically, RI DEM is interested in a usable data layer that identifies forest cover in riparian buffers near agricultural lands. To achieve this, FEMC overlayed forest-type raster data, agricultural land data, and riparian buffer zones. The products provide RI DEM with an analysis to inform decision-making for conservation planning, land management, and water quality stewardship efforts in Rhode Island.RGIS Forest HabitatPublished as a tile layer, the 2020 Forest Habitat layer for Rhode Island was created to help in forest management for wildlife.
