Delivery Review End
April 2016 Data Delivery Status
All Delivered LC Data has been separated into Individual Class Masks (1,null) and Configured by County Using a Regional Model
This Model can be Used for Future Deliveries.
April 2016 Data Delivery Status
Virginia Bay Area 2 North and South
46 Individual Scenes
VA State Plane
Cell Size 3.28084 Meters Square
Provisional data “~ May be some changes in the
future”
Hold until Final layer is Delivered.
Process Model Status
Completed Regional Utility Models
Extract State Counties
Buffer County Shapes
Create all LC Masks for One County
Extract Regional NavTec to Counties
Extract Regional NavTec Rail to Counties
Process Model Status
Regional Utility Models To be Completed
Combine Regional Water
Combine Regional Impervious
Combine Regional NavTec to Counties
Create Regional Wetlands
And Water Bodies (Separate Model)
Separate into County Folders
Needs Input from LUWG Expert Panel
Production Schedule (April ‘25 –>)
Models Still to be Finalized :
Impervious Model
Tree Canopy over Impervious
Forest Model / Impervious Density
Turf Grass
Wetland
Water
Planning to Complete These by the Third Week of April
Outstanding Production Issues
In Need of LUWG Guidance:
Nav Tec Land Use A&B Class Combining
Local Land Use Class Combining
Road Right of Way Questions
Fractional Model Questions
Application of Local Land Use Classes and Parcel Data
Turf Grass and Fractional Models are Dependent on These
Production Schedule (April ‘25 – Oct ‘16)
Nav Tec Streets Issues to be Resolved April 8 – 18
Turf Grass Model Depends on Streets
Cropland Data Layer Preparation: 4/11
Crop Pasture Model Depends on CDL
Wetland Model Ready for Final Prep: 4/13
Depends on WLWG Expert Panel
Water Model Depends on Wetland Model
Production Schedule (April ‘25 –>)
Recap: Models Not Yet Begun (Awaiting Final Requirements):
Mixed Open
Ag Space
Crop Pasture
Fractional
Aggregation Procedure
Percentage Check
PA Wetland Burn in and VA Tree Canopy Enhancement
Post Local Review
Current Best “Final Delivery” Estimate
October 2016 To Finish is Most Optimistic Estimate
Will have a much firmer date by May after above questions and
issues have been discussed and resolved
