Description:
Abstract:
This dataset was developed in support of the Western Washington Land Use Change on Non-Federal Land 1988, 1996, 2004 project and is not intended for any other use.
Purpose:
Calculate and display land use change on non-federal lands in Western Washington, using time- and cost-efficient remote sensing and GIS technologies, keeping in mind the following:
1) Develop methods that can be easily replicated for other areas of the Pacific Northwest;
2) And, attempt to exceed the accuracy and efficiency of conducting a similar study based on aerial photointerpretation, which is often costly and time-consuming.
Land cover is the observed (bio)physical cover on the Earth's surface, while land use is the use is what the land is used for by humans (e.g. protected areas, timber land, etc.). While land cover allows us to see overall biophysical cover, land use allows us to see patterns of development, management practices, and more.
