The 2010 LCRE classified land cover data set, with an emphasis on estuarine and tidal freshwater vegetation types, was derived using a high resolution image segmentation and object based classification process. The primary data sources include the following: a) 2009 4 band, 1 meter resolution airborne imagery acquired by the USDA National Agriculture Inventory Program (NAIP); b) archived 30m LandSAT TM5 imagery from various dates ranging from 2007-2009; c) 2009-2010 LiDAR elevation data aquired by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The minimum mapping unit, defined as the smallest specified area for mapping an individual landform, is 0.25 acres.
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
