Landuse / Landcover Map of Los Planes Watershed, Baja California Sur, Mexico

Metadata Updated: September 1, 2024

This landuse / landcover (LULC) map displays a basic depiction of the Los Planes watershed in Baja California Sur, Mexico. This simplified, 7-class LULC map displays classes that are useful for hydrologic modeling and broad vegetation mapping in the region. It was created from analysis of six Sentinel-2 satellite images and other existing geospatial datasets. These satellite images are provided at 10-meter spatial resolution and were calibrated for topographic illumination effects to enhance its accuracy in rugged, mountainous terrain like that seen in the watershed. A novel filtering methodology was also applied to minimize the "salt-and-pepper effect" from the principle component analysis (PCA) and image classification methodology. See "lulc_los_planes_watershed_final_2_legend.jpg" for a low-resolution overview of the image and legend.
