Build into a data.frame to potentially be used to analyzed as a potential explanatory variable for 'monarch' adult, egg, larva data.

Data is acres of cover for each land cover type which make up the 1552 acres or 6.28 km2 area surrounding the center of the plot. A circle with 1.4142km radius. Data was generated using GIS.

@jarad @nulloa This is data that I've not mentioned before. It may have limited applicability because our monarch data isn't very robust but originally we thought this data would be useful to quantify the habitat types surrounding the plot and it's possible effects on monarch utilization of our plots.

After the data.frame is created, create an issue for me to add a helpfile.
