Detailed High Resolution Land Cover Characterization

Sponsored by the Connecticut DEP Office of Long Island Sound Programs

The goal of the high resolution image classification was to determine land cover for regions containing a high density of high priority parcels. The CLAM (Coastal Land Assessment Methodology) project of the Connecticut DEP determined the priority.
