Here are a few resources for Georgia vegetation and land cover:
Georgia Land Use Trends - UGA Natural Resources Spatial Analysis Lab
http://narsal.uga.edu/glut
Includes an interactive map and landcover class descriptions
Landcover of Georgia - Georgia DNR
http://www.georgiawildlife.com/Conservation/Landcover?cat=6
Georgia GIS Clearinghouse (note - you will need to create an account,
but most data is free)
https://data.georgiaspatial.org/login.asp
In particular, look at Landsat Landcover 1988-90; find it by choosing
the layer "Landcover".
Hope that helps!

Hi:
I'm working with a community member who is interested in identifying
areas in Texas, Alabama, and western Georgia where multiple types of
vegetation occur in close proximity.
We have a couple of vegetation maps of Texas, although nothing for
Alabama or Georgia.
I found the following online:
Vegetation/Cover Types of Texas --
http://www.lib.utexas.edu/geo/pics/vegetationcover2a.jpg
Vegetation Types of Texas --
http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/media/pwd_mp_e0100_1070n_08.pdf
Vegetation Class Maps by County for Alabama --
http://www.forestry.state.al.us/VegetationMaps.aspx?bv=1&s=4
So what she needs now is more detailed vegetation maps of Texas and
vegetation maps of Georgia. She's specifically interested in Columbus,
Georgia which is close to the border with Alabama.
Also, she's interested in Christian Scientists and where they are
located. I tried looking online (I used Social Explorer) and have
looked at the Christian Scientist website, but haven't found anything
that breaks down geographically where they are located.
I've cc'ed her, so if you know of anything please respond to her.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Chris
