Full Metadata This EnviroAtlas web service supports research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas). The EnviroAtlas One Meter-scale Urban Land Cover (MULC) Data were generated individually for each EnviroAtlas community to provide a detailed view of the urban environment for analysis of multiple human and ecosystem health metrics and services. Source imagery varies by community. Land cover classes mapped also vary by community and include the following: water, impervious surfaces, soil and barren land, trees, shrub, grass and herbaceous, agriculture, orchards, woody wetlands, and emergent wetlands. Accuracy assessments were completed for each community's classification. For specific information about methods and accuracy of each community's land cover classification, consult their individual metadata records: Austin, TX; Cleveland, OH; Des Moines, IA; Durham, NC; Fresno, CA; Green Bay, WI; Memphis, TN; Milwaukee, WI; Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN; New Bedford, MA; New York, NY; Phoenix, AZ; Pittsburgh, PA; Portland, ME; Paterson, NJ; Portland, OR; Tampa, FL; and Woodbine, IA. |
