  1. Land Use • Remote Sensing was utilized to map land use • Remote sensing uses instruments mounted on satellites to produce images that displayed watershed for each site. • This information was formulated with impervious quotient as set forth by the Atlanta Regional Commission and Adopt-a-Stream. • We compared this spatial information over a period 8 years in 6 intervals (2003, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009 2011)

  2. Land Use – Marsh Creek 30.16%
