Abstract The Montana Ecogroups were developed under the new Land Cover effort and based on the USDA-NRCS Major Land Units (MLRAS) ; the USFS Ecological Unit Hierarchy; the EPA Ecoregions; and the HU8, HU6 and Basins level of Hydrologic Unit mapping. The final 747 ecogroup map units represent scale and site refinements and modifications to the MLRA, ECOUNIT and Ecoregions delineations while retaining the unaltered hydrologic units. Ancillary data from NED 10m DEMS, geology, mountain ranges hydrography and NAIP were referenced in the refinement of map units.
