In Module 2 I learned that the United States Geographical Survey created a Land Use / Land Cover (LU/LC) classification for remote sensor data collection and is used to promote uniformity of feature classifications.
During lab 2 features of Pascagoula, Mississippi were identified, the features were then evaluated at LU/LC classification level II based on criteria such as, size, shape, color, texture, density and knowledge. Next the attribute table was updated with the LU/LC code, code name, and then a description was provided. Finally, a map was created to show Level II Land Use / Land Cover for the area of Pascagoula, Mississippi. The the map created was compared to Google Earth to compare classification selection accuracy. The comparison showed that 87% Land Use / Land Cover classification were accurately selected.
