Purpose: To determine size, location, and type of exotic and/or invasive vegetation in the Malibu Creek watershed. Supplemental_Information: Features were mapped using Ashtech Reliance (pre 2002) and Trimble Pro-XR (post 2002) sub-meter Global Positioning Systems. All GPS data was differentially corrected using base station data within 20 km. Slope and elevation data were collected using Laser technolgy and Laser Atlanta laser range finders accurate to 1/10 ft.
