This data set utilized 1 full or partial 2010 WorldView2 multispectral scene and the 2002 high-resolution Swains, American Samoa C-CAP data set. The imagery and base classification were included in a multi-step change detection process to extract land cover features in the 2010 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 > PACIFIC OCEAN > CENTRAL PACIFIC OCEAN > AMERICAN SAMOA 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 Swains 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.

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 Photo Science Inc. (www.photoscience.com). This version of the classification is the High Resolution Land Cover (2010-era) for the Island of Swains, American Samoa. This section outlines the classification procedure for the Island of Swains, American Samoa High Resolution C-CAP. Non-impervious features were mapped using a 0.5 acre minimum mapping unit (MMU) and impervious features were mapped using a 0.1 acre MMU. Pre-processing steps: The WorldView2 imagery utilized for this project was provided from Digital Globe as an orthorectified, georeferenced product. Photo Science geo-referenced the 2002 C-CAP classification and the 2002 base imagery to the WorldView2 (as it has better horizontal accuracy) to co-register the data sets. Classification: The 2002 C-CAP classification was overlaid on the 2010 WorldView2 imagery with a semi-transparency. The classification was systematically reviewed at a scale of 1:2,500. Where land cover changes were identified the analyst would zoom into a larger scale and manually edit the map to reflect the 2010 ground conditions. The updated map then went through an independent review to further refine the classification. Image segmentation was run on the 2010 imagery in a buffered zone around all of the changed areas. The updated land cover was summarized by the image objects (segments) to replace hand delineated boundaries with boundaries based on image segmentation. This final step ensured a consistent look and feel across the high resolution C-CAP data sets.
