Process Description:
Update to initial release of the CadastralConserved_PROTECTEDLND layer integrating 156 features outstanding from original CONSPUB layer and 663 records from the UVM-SAL VT Town Forest Database (107 forest features in original release were overwritten with updated features and attribution). A net total of 712 new features are now represented in the second release of PROTECTEDLNDs. Most of these features are local in nature, i.e., town forests, "watershed" designations, gun clubs, and other recreation areas. Many of the manually reviewed and deleted features were superseded by updated geometries, water access points that were misplaced, or obvious errors, i.e., a sliver of national refuge in an obviously residential area.
