Description:
This data layer is an attempt to spatially define the "footprint of development", which includes both residential and commercial development. FRAP has thoroughly analyzed various data layers to determine the preferred method for capturing development, especially the difficult task of identifying commercial development. Data sources include 2000 Census block data for housing, 2000 land ownership data for identifying uninhabited public lands, 1990's USGS National Land Cover Data (NLCD), and 2000 Census Urbanized Area data. The data include fields related specifically to identifying the Widlland Urban Interface for fire protection applications.
