VDep is based on changes to species composition, structural stage, and canopy closure.\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n30 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------|------------|--------------------------------|\n| `PMS` | meters | Percent of Mixed-severity Fire |\n\n**PMS Class Table**\n\n| Value | Color | Description |\n|-------|---------|---------------------------|\n| 1 | #008200 | 0-5% |\n| 2 | #138f00 | 6-10% |\n| 3 | #229c00 | 11-15% |\n| 4 | #34a600 | 16-20% |\n| 5 | #47b300 | 21-25% |\n| 6 | #66bf00 | 26-30% |\n| 7 | #7ecc00 | 31-35% |\n| 8 | #9bd900 | 36-40% |\n| 9 | #b8e600 | 41-45% |\n| 10 | #e2f200 | 46-50% |\n| 11 | #fffb00 | 51-55% |\n| 12 | #fadd00 | 56-60% |\n| 13 | #f7c600 | 61-65% |\n| 14 | #f5a300 | 66-70% |\n| 15 | #f08c00 | 71-75% |\n| 16 | #eb7100 | 76-80% |\n| 17 | #e85d00 | 81-85% |\n| 18 | #e63d00 | 86-90% |\n| 19 | #e32a00 | 91-95% |\n| 20 | #de1200 | 96-100% |\n| 111 | #0000ff | Water |\n| 112 | #c8ffff | Snow / Ice |\n| 131 | #4e4e4e | Barren |\n| 132 | #b2b2b2 | Sparsely Vegetated |\n| 133 | #e1e1e1 | Indeterminate Fire Regime |\n\n### Image Properties\n\n**Image Properties**\n\n| Name | Type | Description |\n|-------------|--------|------------------------------------------------------|\n| PMS_classes | DOUBLE | Class values of the Percent of Mixed-severity Fire. |\n| PMS_names | STRING | Descriptive names of Percent of Mixed-severity Fire. |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nLANDFIRE data are public domain data with no use restrictions, though if modifications\nor derivatives of the product(s) are created, then please add some descriptive modifier\nto the data set to avoid confusion.\n\n### Citations\n\nCitations:\n\n- The suggested way to cite LANDFIRE products is specific to each product,\n so the model for citation is provided, with an example for a particular product.\n Producer.
