The AATVM contains maps of several geobotanical themes covering the tundra region of Alaska. The map was derived from the Circumpolar Arctic Vegetation Map (CAVM) and was published at 1:4 million scale (Raynolds et al. 2006). A description of the methods used to make the map are in Raynolds et al. 2005. Most of the mapped themes are identical to those portrayed on the CAVM; only the vegetation theme is different, displaying 33 map units instead of the 13 units portrayed on the CAVM.
