This data set utilized CIR imagery captured from Microsoft UltraCAM X (2011 flights) and Z/I Imaging DMC-II 230 (2012 flights) digital sensors. The land cover is based on the 2007 high resolution St. Croix C-CAP dataset. Changes were identified using aerial photo interpretation of the 2007 dataset against the 2011-2012 imagery. To improve the understanding of coastal uplands and wetlands, and their linkages with the distribution, abundance, and health of living marine resources. completed NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information pointOfContact NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information custodian 5 years EARTH SCIENCE > LAND SURFACE > LAND USE/LAND COVER EARTH SCIENCE > LAND SURFACE > LAND USE/LAND COVER > LAND USE/LAND COVER CLASSIFICATION theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 23.3 OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > CARIBBEAN SEA > VIRGIN ISLANDS place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 23.3 CAMERAS instrument Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Instrument Keywords 23.3 Airplane > Airplane WORLDVIEW-2 > DigitalGlobe WORLDVIEW-2 WORLDVIEW-3 > DigitalGlobe WORLDVIEW-3 platform Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Platform Keywords 23.3 Land Cover Land Cover Analysis Remotely Sensed Imagery/Photos theme Coastal Zone St. Croix place DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCM > Office of Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2026.

Completeness Report Data does not exist for all classes. There are no pixels representing class 11 (Mixed Forest), 22 (Palustrine Aquatic Bed), 23 (Estuarine Aquatic Bed), 24 (Tundra), 25 (Perennial Ice/Snow), 26 (Dwarf Scrub - Alaska specific class), 27 (Sedge/Herbaceous), and 28 (Moss - Alaska specific). Developed classes have been altered to exclude the percentage breakdown of impervious surfaces as the breakdown is not appropriate for high resolution mapping (Developed High Intensity (2), Developed Medium Intensity (3), and Developed Low Intensity (4) are reduced to Impervious (Class 2). Conceptual Consistency 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. This data set was created by Dewberry (www.dewberry.com). This version of the classification is the High Resolution Land Cover (2012-era) for the Island of St Croix, United States Virgin Islands. This section outlines the classification procedure for the St. Croix High Resolution C-CAP. The color-infrared imagery used in producing this land cover product was also utilized in producing an associated impervious surfaces layer for the island. This land cover is based on the 2007 high resolution St. Croix C-CAP dataset. Changes were identified using aerial photo interpretation of the 2007 dataset against the 2011-2012 imagery. A calibration visit was not conducted though NOAA had access to local resources for validation. Non impervious features were mapped using a 0.25 acre minimum mapping unit (MMU) and impervious features were mapped using a 0.1 acre MMU. Pre-processing steps: The 2011-2012 color-infrared imagery utilized for this project was provided from the USACE as an orthorectified, georeferenced product. The imagery was reviewed for radiometric errors, pixel dropouts, and other image issues. Individual image tiles were merged into a single mosaic and re-sampled from the native 1-foot spatial resolution to 1m. Classification: The 2007 C-CAP dataset was over-laid with semi-transparency on the 2011-2012 color-infrared imagery. It was panned at a scale of 1:5,000 and manually updated to match features in the 2011-2012 imagery. Analysts zoomed in to a larger scale when necessary to perform edits. The product went through a QC procedure to ensure features were accurately captured. Map Finalization - Dewberry used independent reviewer's comments to further refine the land cover map. Attributes for this product are as follows: 0 Background 1 Unclassified 2 Impervious 3 4 5 Developed, Open Space 6 Cultivated Crops 7 Pasture/Hay 8 Grassland/Herbaceous 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 Open Water 2014-12-31T00:00:00 Metadata imported 2014-12-31T00:00:00 Source Contribution: NOAA CSC | Source Geospatial Form: remote-sensing image | Type of Source Media: DVD/CD-ROM C-CAP Land Cover, St Croix, United States Virgin Islands, 2012 2015-01-30 publication Dewberry. www.dewberry.com. https://coast.noaa.gov/dataviewer/#/imagery/search/where:ID=4963 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information 2014-12-31
