The EnviroAtlas One Meter-scale Urban Land Cover (MULC) Data were generated individually for each EnviroAtlas community. Source imagery varies by community. Land cover classes mapped also vary by community and include the following: water, impervious surfaces, soil and barren land, trees, shrub, grass and herbaceous, agriculture, orchards, woody wetlands, and emergent wetlands. Accuracy assessments were completed for each community's classification. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets). The EnviroAtlas MULC provides spatially detailed foundational data for approximately 100 derived EnviroAtlas Community information layers. Some layers are developed at the native one-meter MULC resolution and others by U.S. Census block group. While the EnviroAtlas National component is based on NLCD (National Land Cover Database, www.mrlc.gov) land cover data at 30 m spatial resolution (30x30 m pixel dimensions from the Landsat sensor), the EnviroAtlas Community component is based on MULC data at 900 times the spatial resolution. This permits analysis of common landscape features in the 1-10 m range which are unresolvable using 30 m NLCD pixels. EnviroAtlas includes close to 100 data layers derived from MULC data. Three such layers are: Percent impervious area in 50m stream buffer; Value of asthma exacerbation cases avoided due to sulfur dioxide removed ($/yr); and Percent of busy roadway bordered by 25 percent tree buffer. Some of the many possible applications of MULC include: • Knowing the exact location and size of vegetated and non-vegetated spaces; • Identifying highly impervious areas that would most benefit from additional trees and other vegetation to mitigate surface runoff and urban heat island effects; • Measuring the width and character of urban riparian and street buffers; • Locating potential wildlife corridors, gaps and linkages; • Planning park development for maximum benefits. The overall goal of EnviroAtlas is to employ and develop the best available science to map indicators of ecosystem services production, demand, and drivers for the nation. completed EnviroAtlas Coordinator U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Research and Development-Sustainable and Healthy Communities Research Program, EnviroAtlas Geospatial Data Owner (919) 541-3832 109 T.W.
