Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), Coastal Services Center (CSC) 20131115 map Charleston SC NOAA's Ocean Service, Coastal Services Center (CSC) State of Florida http://www.csc.noaa.gov/landcover This is a final classification. It is ready for distribution. This data set is the 2010-era classification of U.S. Florida region. This data set utilized full or partial Landsat scenes which were analyzed according to the Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) protocol to determine land cover. The NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) produces national standardized land cover and change products for the coastal regions of the U.S. C-CAP products inventory coastal intertidal areas, wetlands, and adjacent uplands with the goal of monitoring changes in these habitats, on a one-to-five year repeat cycle. The timeframe for this metadata is reported as 2010-Era, but the actual dates of the Landsat imagery used to create the land cover may have been acquired a few years before or after each era. These maps are developed utilizing Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery, and can be used to track changes in the landscape through time. This trend information gives important feedback to managers on the success or failure of management policies and programs and aid in developing a scientific understanding of the Earth system and its response to natural and human-induced changes. This understanding allows for the prediction of impacts due to these changes and the assessment of their cumulative effects, helping coastal resource managers make more informed regional decisions. NOAA C-CAP is a contributing member to the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics consortium and C-CAP products are included as the coastal expression of land cover within the National Land Cover Database. To improve the understanding of coastal uplands and wetlands, and their linkages with the distribution, abundance, and health of living marine resources.

Tests for logical consistency indicate that all row and column positions in the selected latitude/longitude window contain data. Conversion and integration with vector files indicates that all positions are consistent with earth coordinates covering the same area. Attribute files are logically consistent. Data does not exist for all classes. There are no pixels representing class 24 (Tundra) and class 25 (Snow/Ice). Class 1 (Unclassified) is intentionally left blank. All pixels have been classified. The NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C- CAP): Guidance for Regional Implementation, NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service Report 123, discusses the interagency effort to develop the land cover classification scheme and defines all categories. Landsat scenes were geo-referenced by Eros Data Center. Spatial accuracy assessed by Photo Science, Inc is found to be to within 2 pixels accuracy. No vertical reference for this data.

GeoPlan This dataset was created by Photo Science, Inc. This classification is based on Landsat TM imagery from the MRLC 2011 database. The study area includes portions of zones 46, 55, and 56 - U.S. Florida. Pre-processing steps: Each Landsat TM scene was geo-referenced by USGS (United States Geological Survey) EROS Data Center. The data were geo-referenced to Albers Conical Equal Area, with a spheroid of GRS 1980, and Datum of WGS84. The data units are in meters. At-satellite reflectance was performed on each scene and the tasseled cap transformation applied. All of the image data used were Landsat TM 5. Photo Science, Inc. staff verified the scenes for spatial accuracy to within 2 pixels. Image change detection and classification were performed per Landsat path/row. Change Detection: Areas of change between 2006 and 2009/2010/2011 (depending on the path/row) were determined by primarily using the USGS Multi-Integrated Index Change Analysis (MIICA) method, though image subtraction using individual Landsat bands, band ratios, or Tasseled Cap bands was occasionally used. The change layer is a slight over-estimation of change to ensure that as much change as detectable was included. Impervious classification was done by the USGS, and an Impervious change layer was created by Photo Science, Inc. Classification: The classification of the change areas was a mixture of automated and manual approaches. The change areas were removed from the 2006 classification. The areas with no change between 2006 and 2010 were used as training for a Classification And Regression Tree (CART) analysis of the changed areas. Modelling and hand-editing were used to further refine the CART output and create a final classification. The Impervious change was added to the classification using the NOAA CSC model/threshold approach. The classified change areas were overlaid on the 2006 C-CAP product to create a 2010 C-CAP classification. Attributes for this product are as follows: 0 Background 1 Unclassified (Cloud, Shadow, etc) 2 High Intensity Developed 3 Medium Intensity Developed 4 Low Intensity Developed 5 Open Space Developed 6 Cultivated Land 7 Pasture/Hay 8 Grassland 9 Deciduous Forest 10 Evergreen Forest 11 Mixed Forest 12 Scrub/Shrub 13 Palustrine Forested Wetland 14 Palustrine Scrub/Shrub Wetland 15 Palustrine Emergent Wetland 16 Estuarine Forested Wetland 17 Estuarine Scrub/Shrub Wetland 18 Estuarine Emergent Wetland 19 Unconsolidated Shore 20 Bare Land 21 Water 22 Palustrine Aquatic Bed 23 Estuarine Aquatic Bed 24 Tundra 25 Snow/Ice Post-processing steps: The QA process during the creation the 2010 land cover identified some errors in the previous dates of land cover that needed to be addressed to make a more accurate product. Editing was performed on all dates of land cover to address site specific and region wide issues. While the changes may not be large in area and/or be directly reflected in the accuracy assessment, we feel the products more accurately reflect the land cover for the time period. unknown NOAA Coastal Services Center Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) CRS (Coastal Remote Sensing) Program Manager CRS Program Manager mailing and physical
