| Abstract | Land cover classification of McDonogh using a High Ecological Resolution Classification for Urban Landscapes and Environmental Systems (HERCULES). This classification system was created specifically for urban systems, and its high spatial and categorical resolution matches it well with the scale of interventions being carried out within the watershed. HERCULES class descriptions are present in the table 'HERCULES_codes' and in the enclosed documentation. Metadata is incomplete for this layer, not all attributes are defined. |
