    (University of Minnesota Duluth, 2003-01) Sjerven, Gerald; Host, Connie; Host, George E; Johnson, Lucinda B; Anderson, Curt L; Skurla, James A
    Geographic Information System (GIS) data layers were used to categorize DNR-administered lands within the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness based on a set ofvaluation criteria. DNR lands were classified into parcels, each parcel being approximately 40 acres or less. 3253 individual parcels were included in the analysis. Valuation criteria were derived from parameters used in the assessment report, and included island parcels, parcels with shoreline frontage on lakes of various size, and parcels on oradjacent to perennial streams. The proportions ofuplands and wetlands were also included in the valuation — see key on following page for a detailed description ofthe valuation criteria.
