Revised 2007 LULC based on re-interpretation by AIS using the 2007 Aerial Imagery. This revision was part of the contract to update the 2012 LULC for the State of Delaware. Many errors were detected in the 2007 LULC interpretation and AIS provided correction for those errors.

This digital geospatial dataset represents land use land cover polygons as defined by the Delaware Modified Anderson System derived from: A Land Use and Land Cover Classification System for Use with Remote Sensor Data, U. S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 964, 1976; edited by Delaware in 2007, and 2012. The LULC update was performed using ArcGIS software tools, coding menus, and interactive photo-interpretative mapping techniques. Three relevant fields are included in the dataset attribute table:

• “LULC_CODE2017” – Delaware Modified Anderson System numeric code per 2017 polygons

• “LULC_CATEGORY2017” – Delaware Modified Anderson System category description per 2017 polygons

• “LULC_CATEGORY2017_CONDENSED” - Delaware Modified Anderson System category description per 2017 polygons with reduced number of selected categories for enhanced viewing and comprehension.

• “NCC_RES_DENSITY2017” - Additional residential density classes applied specifically to New Castle County as follows:

1 = Very Low Density Residential 5 - 20 acre lots, based on parcel use categories

2 = Low Density Residential 5 - 0.5 acre lot

3 = Medium Density Residential 2 du/acre - 8 du/acre (0.5 - .125 acre lot)

4 = High Density Residential >8 du/acre (<.125 acre lot)

• “LULC_CODE2012” – Delaware Modified Anderson System numeric code per 2012 polygons

• “LULC_CATEGORY2012” – Delaware Modified Anderson System category description per 2012 polygons.

This metadata record describes the creation of a 2007 update of the 2002 Land Use and Land Cover data set for the State of Delaware. The land use update was based on aerial imagery collected in the summer of 2007. The imagery was collected with 4 bands: B, G, R, and NIR. The update was performed using statistical differencing techniques to identify changed areas. Areas of change were photointerpreted by an analyst. The work was performed by the Sanborn Map Company, Inc. in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

The 2002 land use data were based on the 1997 land-use data of the State and 2002 false color infrared digital orthophotography at a scale of 1:2400.
