The first High-resolution data sets are Caribbean Islands region

This figure shows a part of the St. Thomas Southwest side. Land cover information resource managers will help you understand the cumulative effects of development, including effects on indicators of water quality and land cover, which is a link to the land cover change ecosystem health. This information can also be used to develop better models that simulate or predicts, a change in the use of land and effects.

Coastal change analysis program, NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION's Sea Services Center released recently high-resolution require the use of impervious surface area and otc appetite suppressant
land cover data 2002 era St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John US Virgin Islands.

Data sets with a view to the achievement of the first characters of the country at national level, in particular developed high-resolution satellite imagery data into the Caribbean Islands products.

This information has been developed in collaboration with the Nature Conservancy in the United States Virgin Islands Department of planning and Natural Resources.

State and local designers to use these data sets growth track and assess how the development of water resources.

Land cover data may also be the landscape changes over time, to assess the management regulations and guidelines for future decisions. land cover inventories, and to assess the human impact on the conservation of designers of the coral reefs.

NOAA is currently run on these islands for the 2007 land in order to cover this work is expected to be completed in the summer of 2010.

NOAA coastal change analysis aim connections of the coastal wetland habitats, adjacent uplands and scientific understanding of living marine resources.
