We haven't found any reviews in the usual places. This report presents the new National Land Use Database (NLUD) classification of land use and land cover (Version 4.4). Forest (>50% Crown Closure), 4210     Coniferous The primary source of land-use data was aerial photography with a mapping unit of three acres. The coding scheme used for the land-use data layer has 21 land-use classifications and several additional classes were added for parts of Massachusetts. 1958. The following is an example of this structure : Major group 20 — Food and kindred products... Act of 1962,2 greatly increased the need to collect land use information that is equally useful to both urban development planning and transportation planning programs. You can also download a PDF copy of the Rural Payments service - land use codes (PDF, 202KB, 30 pages). # Land use classification and coding in Canada: an appraisal; a report,\n, # Town Planning Institute of Canada. For the 1995/97 WorldCat is the world's largest library catalog, helping you find library materials online. The manual was reprinted in 1972. Code List . The land-use layer of the GIS system, which also includes 31 other similar areas throughout the county, was used to identify areas where the zoning was not consistent with the General Plan land-use designation. Although the source data was grid based, the 28 land-use codes were used to map typical overlays through a GIS system. For BPS, also use this code if the glasshouse is being used to grow ineligible crops. Forested Wetlands (Coniferous Dom.). However, where a polygon An area used for permanent sports and recreational purposes. The 1965 SLUCM provided a general numeric coding scheme that used two, three, four, or more digits to identify land-use activities and an additional two to eight digits to identify ownership, type of structure the activity is housed in, auxiliary use codes for secondary land uses, etc. These codes are refer to ANDERSON2002.doc. The primary source of land-cover data is aerial photography with a mapping unit of two acres. A Standard System for Identifying and Coding Land Use Activities, United States. Aerial photography: Communities are increasingly using this method of data acquisition to verify or update site-surveyed, parcel-based, land-use information. For 2002 there are several codes etc. a double asterisk (**) in the list below. Coding schemes for land-use/land-cover data acquired only by this method generally contain 12 to 100 land-use classes. In 1994, APA reported to the FHWA on the findings of a survey of federal, state, regional, and local needs for an updated land-use classification standard. The four digits represent one to four levels of classification: Level I, general, Level II descriptive, Level III, detailed, and Level IV, most detailed. The views are based on some common defining characteristics. Town Planning Institute of Canada. Use CW01 for Watercress, Includes Horseradish (Cochlearia armoracia). The baseline LU/LC layer of 1986 was Land-use/land-cover coding schemes are generally used to categorize land uses to study specific phenomena, such as commercial activity, transportation impacts, or environmental impacts. Project Summary. Learn more ››. An area of fresh water, often artificially constructed, which is smaller than a lake. For planned uses, the Conceptual and Area Plan Land Uses coding scheme is used. You also need to tell us about these features on any non-agricultural land you have that is eligible for BPS – read the ‘Non-agricultural land under a Rural Development Programme agreement or the National Forest Changing Landscape Scheme’ below for more information. This coding scheme was adopted for use in the feasibility analysis of a superconductor/supercollider facility in an area roughly equal to 16 quad (7.5' USGS) maps. Total Codes: The total number of land-use/land-cover codes in the coding scheme. Typically, neighborhood-scale urban planning efforts, such as urban renewal, special tax districts, etc., employ such coding schemes. http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Place\/toronto> ; http:\/\/id.loc.gov\/vocabulary\/countries\/onc> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#CreativeWork\/plan_canada> ; http:\/\/dewey.info\/class\/333.00971\/> ; http:\/\/id.worldcat.org\/fast\/991472> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Topic\/land_use> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Topic\/sol_utilisation_du_classification> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Topic\/land_use_canada> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Topic\/sol_utilisation_du_canada> ; http:\/\/id.worldcat.org\/fast\/1204310> ; http:\/\/worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/id\/5608785352> ; http:\/\/www.worldcat.org\/title\/-\/oclc\/102542#PublicationEvent\/toronto_1968> ; http:\/\/www.worldcat.org\/title\/-\/oclc\/102542> ; http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#CreativeWork\/plan_canada>, http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Place\/toronto>, http:\/\/experiment.worldcat.org\/entity\/work\/data\/5608785352#Topic\/land_use>. Cover reflects physical or material features; Division reflects cultural/political boundaries; Ecosystem reflects environmental features; Geoposition reflects locational characteristics relative to know or established points; and Morphology reflects the form (beach, basin, dune, island, valley, etc.) As part of the county's General Plan/Zoning Consistency Program begun in 1986, the land-use information was incorporated in a land-use layer of a countywide GIS system. In light of an increasing emphasis on regional coordination and planning, coding schemes at this level are currently growing fastest. update. Coding schemes at this scale are often adaptable, especially by other cities and urbanized counties. For instance, land-cover data acquired through remote-sensing has a significantly lower resolution than parcel-based land-use data. The other factor in making a choice, and one that is becoming increasingly critical due to advances in use of computer-based technologies, is the ease of manipulation of the various land-use/land-cover classes.
