Irrigated/Non-irrigated Polygons Background Digitizing Effort Status Future
Farm Service Agency • Creates CLU (common land unit) • Administer crop compliance responsibilities • CLU metadata circa 2005
2 year editing effort 18 Counties Over 214,000 polygons
Clipped to model extent Dataset useful for Other projects
Evolution of CLU editing • As-is • 15-class land classification • Balance • Close enough
NDVINormalized Difference Vegetation Index • A by-product of the METRIC processing • Exploits strong spectral reflectance difference between red and near-infrared measurements • Directly related to photosynthetic capacity and energy absorption • NDVI values fall between -1.0 and +1.0
NDVI 255 Spectral classes NDVI Date #1 NDVI Date #2 NDVI Date #3 Per pixel Classification Per Field Classification (75%) Final Review
IRRIGATION STATUS Irrigated Non-irrigated Semi-irrigated
2002 CLU edits • Work with NDVI images to find changes between years • 1-meter statewide NAIP was flown this summer – near-infrared band included
