Purpose

October conference call for the Land Use Workgroup has been cancelled. Contact Lindsey Gordon (gordon.lindsey@epa.gov) with questions. The CBPO Land Data and GIS Teams are working to complete the Phase 6 Land Use Database and disseminate it for local review for all counties by Monday, October 17th. Currently, the models required to translate the high-res land cover classes into Phase 6 land uses are in their final stage of testing and the input data directories are being evaluated for completeness. All of the local land use and parcel data received through the spring of 2016 have been converted to their appropriate inputs for use in the Phase 6 land use models. Implementation of the models will be automated over multiple computers and monitored for errors. Our next LUWG call will be Wednesday, November 2nd, when we will discuss local review comments and questions about the draft Phase 6 land use data and the final steps needed to produce the 1984-2013 land use inputs to the Phase 6 watershed model. During the November call, we will also discuss feedback received from the WQGIT’s October Face-to-Face meeting on the schedule and technical plan for producing the 2025 land use dataset.
