Concrete, metals and other materials gradually deteriorate through chemical reactions with their environment. This process, known as corrosion, occurs slowly in some soils and more quickly in others. When in contact with the soil, concrete can deteriorate due to a chemical reaction between a base (concrete) and a weak acid (wet soil). This layer classifies soils with low, moderate, and high rates of corrosion of concrete based on the soil texture, organic content, pH, and chemical composition. For more information on the classification system, see the National Soil Survey Handbook Part 618.80 Guides for Estimating Risk of Corrosion Potential for Uncoated Steel.

Precipitation that falls on land can either run off in streams and rivers, soak into the ground, or return to the atmosphere through evapotranspiration. Water that evaporates returns directly to the atmosphere while water that is transpired is taken up by plant roots and lost to the atmosphere through the leaves.Evapotranspiration data can be used to calculate regional water and energy balance and soil water status and provides key information for water resource management. Potential evapotranspiration, the amount of ET that would occur if soil moisture were not limited, is a purely meteorological characteristic, based on air temperature, solar radiation, and wind speed. Actual evapotranspiration also depends on water availability, so it might occur at very close to the potential rate in a rainforest, but be much lower in a desert despite the higher potential there.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: EvapotranspirationUnits: Millimeters per yearCell Size: 927.6623821756539 metersSource Type: ContinuousPixel Type: 16-bit unsigned integerData Coordinate System: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereExtent: Global Source: University of Montana Numerical Terradynamic Simulation GroupPublication Date: March 10, 2015ArcGIS Server URL: https://landscape6.arcgis.com/arcgis/This layer provides access to a 1km cell sized raster of average annual evaporative loss from the land surface, measured in mm/year.

The ArcGIS Online US Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map collection now contains over 177,000 historical quadrangle maps dating from 1882 to 2006. The USGS Historical Topographic Map Explorer app brings these maps to life through an interface that guides users through the steps for exploring the map collection:

Finding the maps of interest is simple. Users can see a footprint of the map in the map view before they decide to add it to the display, and thumbnails of the maps are shown in pop-ups on the timeline. The timeline also helps users find maps because they can zoom and pan, and maps at select scales can be turned on or off by using the legend boxes to the left of the timeline. Once maps have been added to the display, users can reorder them by dragging them. Users can also download maps as zipped GeoTIFF images. Users can also share the current state of the app through a hyperlink or social media. This ArcWatch article guides you through each of these steps: https://www.esri.com/esri-news/arcwatch/1014/envisioning-the-past.

​Metals and other materials gradually deteriorate through chemical reactions with their environment. This process, known as corrosion, occurs slowly in some soils and more quickly in other. When in contact with soil, the iron in steel is dissolved and the steel weakened through chemical processes that convert iron into its ions. This layer classifies soils with low, moderate, and high rates of corrosion of uncoated steel based on drainage class, acidity, and electrical conductivity of the soil. For more information on the classification system, see the National Soil Survey Handbook.Low corrosion riskModerate corrosion riskHigh corrosion risk Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: Corrosion of steelGeographic Extent: Contiguous United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Republic of Palau, Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa.Projection: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereData Coordinate System: WKID 5070 USA Contiguous Albers Equal Area Conic USGS version (contiguous US, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands), WKID 3338 WGS 1984 Albers (Alaska), WKID 4326 WGS 1984 Decimal Degrees (Guam, Republic of the Marshall Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Republic of Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, American Samoa, and Hawaii).Units: ClassesCell Size: 30 metersSource Type: DiscretePixel Type: Unsigned integerSource: Natural Resources Conservation ServiceUpdate Frequency: AnnualPublication Date: December 2024 Data from the gNATSGO database was used to create the layer.

Questions?Please leave a comment below if you have a question about this layer, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

This layer shows which parts of the United States and Puerto Rico fall within ten minutes' walk of one or more grocery stores. It is estimated that 20% of U.S. population live within a 10 minute walk of a grocery store, and 92% of the population live within a 10 minute drive of a grocery store. The layer is suitable for looking at access at a neighborhood scale.When you add this layer to your web map, along with the drivable access layer and the SafeGraph grocery store layer, it becomes easier to spot grocery stores that sit within a highly populated area, and grocery stores that sit in a shopping center far away from populated areas. Add the Census block points layer to show a popup with the count of stores within 10 minutes' walk and drive. This view of a city begins to hint at the question: how many people have each type of access to grocery stores? And, what if they are unable to walk a mile regularly, or don't own a car?How to Use This Layer in a Web MapUse this layer in a web map to introduce the concepts of access to grocery stores in your city or town. This is the kind of map where people will want to look up their home or work address to validate what the map is saying. See this example web map which you can use in your projects, storymaps, apps and dashboards.The layer was built with that use in mind. Many maps of access use straight-line, as-the-crow-flies distance, which ignores real-world barriers to walkability like rivers, lakes, interstates and other characteristics of the built environment. Block analysis using a network data set and Origin-Destination analysis factors these barriers in, resulting in a more realistic depiction of access.Lastly, this layer can serve as backdrop to other community resources, like food banks, farmers markets (example), and transit (example). Add a transit layer to immediately gauge its impact on the population's grocery access. You can also use this map to see how it relates to communities of concern. Add a layer of any block group or tract demographics, such as Percent Senior Population (examples), or Percent of Households with Access to 0 Vehicles (examples).The layer is a useful visual resource for helping community leaders, business and government leaders see their town from the perspective of its residents, and begin asking questions about how their community could be improved.Data sourcesPopulation data is from the 2010 U.S. Census blocks. Each census block has a count of stores within a 10 minute walk, and a count of stores within a ten minute drive. Census blocks known to be unpopulated are given a score of 0. The layer is available as a hosted feature layer.Grocery store locations are from SafeGraph, reflecting what was in the data as of October 2020. Access to the layer was obtained from the SafeGraph offering in ArcGIS Marketplace. For this project, ArcGIS StreetMap Premium was used for the street network in the origin-destination analysis work, because it already has the necessary attributes on each street segment to identify which streets are considered walkable, and supports a wide variety of driving parameters.The walkable access layer and drivable access layers are rasters, whose colors were chosen to allow the drivable access layer to serve as backdrop to the walkable access layer. Alternative versions of these layers are available. These pairs use different colors but are otherwise identical in content.Data PreparationArcGIS Network Analyst was used to set up a network street layer for analysis. ArcGIS StreetMap Premium was installed to a local hard drive and selected in the Origin-Destination workflow as the network data source. This allows the origins (Census block centroids) and destinations (SafeGraph grocery stores) to be connected to that network, to allow origin-destination analysis.The Census blocks layer contains the centroid of each Census block. The data allows a simple popup to be created. This layer's block figures can be summarized further, to tract, county and state levels.The SafeGraph grocery store locations were created by querying the SafeGraph source layer based on primary NAICS code. After connecting to the layer in ArcGIS Pro, a definition query was set to only show records with NAICS code 445110 as an initial screening. The layer was exported to a local disk drive for further definition query refinement, to eliminate any records that were obviously not grocery stores. The final layer used in the analysis had approximately 53,600 records. In this map, this layer is included as a vector tile layer.MethodologyEvery census block in the U.S. was assigned two access scores, whose numbers are simply how many grocery stores are within a 10 minute walk and a 10 minute drive of that census block. Every census block has a score of 0 (no stores), 1, 2 or more stores. The count of accessible stores was determined using Origin-Destination Analysis in ArcGIS Network Analyst, in ArcGIS Pro. A set of Tools in this ArcGIS Pro package allow a similar analysis to be conducted for any city or other area. The Tools step through the data prep and analysis steps. Download the Pro package, open it and substitute your own layers for Origins and Destinations. Parcel centroids are a suggested option for Origins, for example. Origin-Destination analysis was configured, using ArcGIS StreetMap Premium as the network data source. Census block centroids with population greater than zero were used as the Origins, and grocery store locations were used as the Destinations. A cutoff of 10 minutes was used with the Walk Time option. Only one restriction was applied to the street network: Walkable, which means Interstates and other non-walkable street segments were treated appropriately. You see the results in the map: wherever freeway overpasses and underpasses are present near a grocery store, the walkable area extends across/through that pass, but not along the freeway.A cutoff of 10 minutes was used with the Drive Time option. The default restrictions were applied to the street network, which means a typical vehicle's access to all types of roads was factored in.The results for each analysis were captured in the Lines layer, which shows which origins are within the cutoff of each destination over the street network, given the assumptions about that network (walking, or driving a vehicle).The Lines layer was then summarized by census block ID to capture the Maximum value of the Destination_Rank field. A census block within 10 minutes of 3 stores would have 3 records in the Lines layer, but only one value in the summarized table, with a MAX_Destination_Rank field value of 3. This is the number of stores accessible to that census block in the 10 minutes measured, for walking and driving. These data were joined to the block centroids layer and given unique names. At this point, all blocks with zero population or null values in the MAX_Destination_Rank fields were given a store count of 0, to help the next step.Walkable and Drivable areas are calculated into a raster layer, using Nearest Neighbor geoprocessing tool on the count of stores within a 10 minute walk, and a count of stores within a ten minute drive, respectively. This tool uses a 200 meter grid and interpolates the values between each census block. A census tracts layer containing all water polygons "erased" from the census tract boundaries was used as an environment setting, to help constrain interpolation into/across bodies of water. The same layer use used to "shoreline" the Nearest Neighbor results, to eliminate any interpolation into the ocean or Great Lakes. This helped but was not perfect.Notes and LimitationsThe map provides a baseline for discussing access to grocery stores in a city. It does not presume local population has the desire or means to walk or drive to obtain groceries. It does not take elevation gain or loss into account. It does not factor time of day nor weather, seasons, or other variables that affect a person's commute choices. Walking and driving are just two ways people get to a grocery store. Some people ride a bike, others take public transit, have groceries delivered, or rely on a friend with a vehicle. Thank you to Melinda Morang on the Network Analyst team for guidance and suggestions at key moments along the way; to Emily Meriam for reviewing the previous version of this map and creating new color palettes and marker symbols specific to this project.

Using Deep learning Objects, the images were re-classified into useful consistent colours. Deep Learning Objects and Training The resulting mosaic was then prepared for reclassification using the Label Objects for Deep Learning tool in ArcGIS Pro.

By identifying the letters, it then made the reclassification and vectorization results easier to clean up of unnecessary clutter caused by the labels of streets.

Wetlands are areas where water is present at or near the surface of the soil during at least part of the year. Wetlands provide habitat for many species of plants and animals that are adapted to living in wet habitats. Wetlands form characteristic soils, absorb pollutants and excess nutrients from aquatic systems, help buffer the effects of high flows, and recharge groundwater. Data on the distribution and type of wetland play an important role in land use planning and several federal and state laws require that wetlands be considered during the planning process.The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) was designed to assist land managers in wetland conservation efforts. The NWI is managed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: WetlandsUnits: MetersCell Size: 10 metersSource Type: ThematicPixel Type: Unsigned integer 16 bitData Coordinate System: North America Albers Equal Area Conic (WKID 102008)Mosaic Projection: North America Albers Equal Area Conic (WKID 102008)Extent: 50 United States plus Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the US Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, and US Minor Outlying IslandsSource: U.S. Fish and Wildlife ServicePublication Date: October 26, 2024 ArcGIS Server URL: https://landscape11.arcgis.com/arcgis/This layer was created from the October 26, 2024 version of the NWI. The original NWI features were downloaded from USFWS and then converted to a single part feature class using the Multipart To Singlepart tool. After that, the Dice tool was used to break up features larger than 50,000 vertices. The diced, singlepart features were projected to North America Albers projection, then the Repair Geometry tool was run on the features, using tool defaults, to prepare it for a clean rasterization. The features were then converted to several rasters in North America Albers projection using the Polygon to Raster Tool. The National Land Cover Dataset was used as a snap raster for the rasterization process. The rasters representing different parts of the USA are served together as a single layer from a mosaic dataset on the server.This layer includes attributes from the original dataset as well as attributes added by Esri for use in the default pop-up and to allow the user to query and filter the data. NWI derived attributes:Wetland Code - a code that identifies specific attributes of the wetlandWetland Type - one of 8 wetland typesEsri created attributes:System - code indicating the system and subsystem of the wetlandClass - code indicating the class and subclass of the wetlandModifier 1, Modifier 2, Modifier 3, Modifier 4 - these four fields contain letter codes for modifiers applied to the wetland descriptionSystem Name - the name of the system (Marine, Estuarine, Riverine, Lacustrine, or Palustrine)Subsystem Name - the name of the subsystemClass Name - the name of the classSubclass Name - the name of the subclassModifier 1 Name, Modifier 2 Name, Modifier 3 Name , Modifier 4 Name - these four fields contain names for modifiers applied to the wetland descriptionPopup Header - this field contains a text string that is used to create the header in the default pop-up System Text - this field contains a text string that is used to create the system description text in the default pop-upClass Text - this field contains a text string that is used to create the class description text in the default pop-upModifier Text - this field contains a text string that is used to create the modifier description text in the default pop-upSpecies Text - this field contains a text string that is used to create the species description text in the default pop-upCodes, names, and text fields were derived from the publication Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States.The layer serves an index value from a mosaic dataset on the enterprise server. It uses an attribute table function on the mosaic to serve the attributes that appear in the popup for the layer. Because there are more than 2,000 integer values served by the layer, most map clients can not render a legend for this layer. A colormap is used after the attribute table function on the mosaic dataset to help the layer render in the colors intended for the layer.What can you do with this layer?This layer is suitable for both visualization and analysis across the ArcGIS system.

Add the Census block points layer to show a popup with the count of stores within 10 minutes' walk and drive. This view of a city begins to hint at the question: how many people have each type of access to grocery stores? And, what if they are unable to walk a mile regularly, or don't own a car?How to Use This Layer in a Web MapUse this layer in a web map to introduce the concepts of access to grocery stores in your city or town. This is the kind of map where people will want to look up their home or work address to validate what the map is saying. See this example web map which you can use in your projects, storymaps, apps and dashboards.The layer was built with that use in mind. Many maps of access use straight-line, as-the-crow-flies distance, which ignores real-world barriers to walkability like rivers, lakes, interstates and other characteristics of the built environment. Block analysis using a network data set and Origin-Destination analysis factors these barriers in, resulting in a more realistic depiction of access.Lastly, this layer can serve as backdrop to other community resources, like food banks, farmers markets (example), and transit (example). Add a transit layer to immediately gauge its impact on the population's grocery access. You can also use this map to see how it relates to communities of concern. Add a layer of any block group or tract demographics, such as Percent Senior Population (examples), or Percent of Households with Access to 0 Vehicles (examples).The layer is a useful visual resource for helping community leaders, business and government leaders see their town from the perspective of its residents, and begin asking questions about how their community could be improved.Data sourcesPopulation data is from the 2010 U.S. Census blocks. Each census block has a count of stores within a 10 minute walk, and a count of stores within a ten minute drive. Census blocks known to be unpopulated are given a score of 0. The layer is available as a hosted feature layer.Grocery store locations are from SafeGraph, reflecting what was in the data as of October 2020. Access to the layer was obtained from the SafeGraph offering in ArcGIS Marketplace. For this project, ArcGIS StreetMap Premium was used for the street network in the origin-destination analysis work, because it already has the necessary attributes on each street segment to identify which streets are considered walkable, and supports a wide variety of driving parameters.The walkable access layer and drivable access layers are rasters, whose colors were chosen to allow the drivable access layer to serve as backdrop to the walkable access layer. Alternative versions of these layers are available. These pairs use different colors but are otherwise identical in content.Data PreparationArcGIS Network Analyst was used to set up a network street layer for analysis. ArcGIS StreetMap Premium was installed to a local hard drive and selected in the Origin-Destination workflow as the network data source. This allows the origins (Census block centroids) and destinations (SafeGraph grocery stores) to be connected to that network, to allow origin-destination analysis.The Census blocks layer contains the centroid of each Census block. The data allows a simple popup to be created. This layer's block figures can be summarized further, to tract, county and state levels.The SafeGraph grocery store locations were created by querying the SafeGraph source layer based on primary NAICS code. After connecting to the layer in ArcGIS Pro, a definition query was set to only show records with NAICS code 445110 as an initial screening. The layer was exported to a local disk drive for further definition query refinement, to eliminate any records that were obviously not grocery stores. The final layer used in the analysis had approximately 53,600 records. In this map, this layer is included as a vector tile layer.MethodologyEvery census block in the U.S. was assigned two access scores, whose numbers are simply how many grocery stores are within a 10 minute walk and a 10 minute drive of that census block. Every census block has a score of 0 (no stores), 1, 2 or more stores. The count of accessible stores was determined using Origin-Destination Analysis in ArcGIS Network Analyst, in ArcGIS Pro. A set of Tools in this ArcGIS Pro package allow a similar analysis to be conducted for any city or other area. The Tools step through the data prep and analysis steps. Download the Pro package, open it and substitute your own layers for Origins and Destinations. Parcel centroids are a suggested option for Origins, for example. Origin-Destination analysis was configured, using ArcGIS StreetMap Premium as the network data source. Census block centroids with population greater than zero were used as the Origins, and grocery store locations were used as the Destinations. A cutoff of 10 minutes was used with the Walk Time option. Only one restriction was applied to the street network: Walkable, which means Interstates and other non-walkable street segments were treated appropriately. You see the results in the map: wherever freeway overpasses and underpasses are present near a grocery store, the walkable area extends across/through that pass, but not along the freeway.A cutoff of 10 minutes was used with the Drive Time option. The default restrictions were applied to the street network, which means a typical vehicle's access to all types of roads was factored in.The results for each analysis were captured in the Lines layer, which shows which origins are within the cutoff of each destination over the street network, given the assumptions about that network (walking, or driving a vehicle).The Lines layer was then summarized by census block ID to capture the Maximum value of the Destination_Rank field. A census block within 10 minutes of 3 stores would have 3 records in the Lines layer, but only one value in the summarized table, with a MAX_Destination_Rank field value of 3. This is the number of stores accessible to that census block in the 10 minutes measured, for walking and driving. These data were joined to the block centroids layer and given unique names. At this point, all blocks with zero population or null values in the MAX_Destination_Rank fields were given a store count of 0, to help the next step.Walkable and Drivable areas are calculated into a raster layer, using Nearest Neighbor geoprocessing tool on the count of stores within a 10 minute walk, and a count of stores within a ten minute drive, respectively. This tool uses a 200 meter grid and interpolates the values between each census block. A census tracts layer containing all water polygons "erased" from the census tract boundaries was used as an environment setting, to help constrain interpolation into/across bodies of water. The same layer use used to "shoreline" the Nearest Neighbor results, to eliminate any interpolation into the ocean or Great Lakes. This helped but was not perfect.Notes and LimitationsThe map provides a baseline for discussing access to grocery stores in a city. It does not presume local population has the desire or means to walk or drive to obtain groceries. It does not take elevation gain or loss into account. It does not factor time of day nor weather, seasons, or other variables that affect a person's commute choices. Walking and driving are just two ways people get to a grocery store. Some people ride a bike, others take public transit, have groceries delivered, or rely on a friend with a vehicle.

This 3D model of Mount Saint Helens shows the topography using wood-textured contours set at 50m vertical spacing, with the darker wood grain color indicating the major contours at 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 meters above sea level. The state of the mountain before the eruption of May 13, 1980 is shown with thinner contours, allowing you to see the volume of rock that was ejected via the lateral blast.The process to create the contours uses CityEngine and ArcGIS Pro for data processing, symbolization, and publishing. The steps:Create a rectangular AOI polygon and use the Clip Raster tool on your local terrain raster. A 30m DEM was used for before, 10m for after.Run the Contour tool on the clipped raster, using the polygon output option - 50m was used for this scene.Run the Smooth Polygon tool on the contours. For Mount St. Helens, I used the PAEK algorithm, with a 200m smoothing tolerance. Depending on the resolution of the elevation raster and the extent of the AOI, a larger or smaller value may be needed. Write a CityEngine rule (see below) that extrudes and textures each contour polygon to create a stair-stepped 3D contour map. Provide multiple wood texture options with parameters for: grain size, grain rotation, extrusion height (to account for different contour depths if values other than 100m are used), and a hook for the rule to read the ContourMax attribute that is created by the Contour tool. Export CityEngine rule as a Rule Package (*.rpk).Add some extra features for context - a wooden planter box to hide some of the edges of the model, and water bodies.Apply the CityEngine-authored RPK to the contour polygons in ArcGIS Pro as a procedural fill symbol, adjust parameters for desired look & feel.Run Layer 3D to Feature Class tool to convert the procedural fill to multipatch features. Share Web SceneRather than create a more complicated CityEngine rule that applied textures for light/dark wood colors for minor/major contours, I just created a complete light- and dark-wood version of the mountain (and one with just the water), then shuffled them together.Depending on where this methodology is applied, you may want to clip out other areas - for example, glaciers, roads, or rivers. Or add annotation by inlaying a small north arrow in the corner of the map. I like the challenge of representing any feature in this scene in terms of wood colors and grains - some extruded, some recessed, some inlaid flat.

Alt + click on the layer in the table of contents to zoom to the subbasin.Soil map units are the basic geographic unit of the Soil Survey Geographic Database (SSURGO). The SSURGO dataset is a compilation of soils information collected over the last century by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Map units delineate the extent of different soils. Data for each map unit contains descriptions of the soil’s components, productivity, unique properties, and suitability interpretations.Each soil type has a unique combination of physical, chemical, nutrient and moisture properties. Soil type has ramifications for engineering and construction activities, natural hazards such as landslides, agricultural productivity, the distribution of native plant and animal life and hydrologic and other physical processes. Soil types in the context of climate and terrain can be used as a general indicator of engineering constraints, agriculture suitability, biological productivity and the natural distribution of plants and animals.Dataset SummaryThe map packages were created from the October 2021 SSURGO snapshot. The dataset covers the 48 contiguous United States plus Hawaii and portions of Alaska. Map packages are available for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. A project package for US Island Territories and associated states of the Pacific Ocean can be downloaded by clicking one of the included areas in the map. The Pacific Project Package includes: Guam, the Marshall Islands, the Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa.Not all areas within SSURGO have completed soil surveys and many attributes have areas with no data. The soil data in the packages is also available as a feature layer in the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World.AttributesKey fields from nine commonly used SSURGO tables were compiled to create the 173 attribute fields in this layer. Some fields were joined directly to the SSURGO Map Unit polygon feature class while others required summarization and other processing to create a 1:1 relationship between the attributes and polygons prior to joining the tables. Attributes of this layer are listed below in their order of occurrence in the attribute table and are organized by the SSURGO table they originated from and the processing methods used on them.Map Unit Polygon Feature Class Attribute TableThe fields in this table are from the attribute table of the Map Unit polygon feature class which provides the geographic extent of the map units.Area SymbolSpatial VersionMap Unit SymbolMap Unit TableThe fields in this table have a 1:1 relationship with the map unit polygons and were joined to the table using the Map Unit Key field.Map Unit NameMap Unit KindFarmland ClassInterpretive FocusIntensity of MappingIowa Corn Suitability RatingLegend TableThis table has 1:1 relationship with the Map Unit table and was joined using the Legend Key field.Project ScaleSurvey Area Catalog TableThe fields in this table have a 1:1 relationship with the polygons and were joined to the Map Unit table using the Survey Area Catalog Key and Legend Key fields.Survey Area VersionTabular VersionMap Unit Aggregated Attribute TableThe fields in this table have a 1:1 relationship with the map unit polygons and were joined to the Map Unit attribute table using the Map Unit Key field.Slope Gradient - Dominant ComponentSlope Gradient - Weighted AverageBedrock Depth - MinimumWater Table Depth - Annual MinimumWater Table Depth - April to June MinimumFlooding Frequency - Dominant ConditionFlooding Frequency - MaximumPonding Frequency - PresenceAvailable Water Storage 0-25 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-50 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-100 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-150 cm - Weighted AverageDrainage Class - Dominant ConditionDrainage Class - WettestHydrologic Group - Dominant ConditionIrrigated Capability Class - Dominant ConditionIrrigated Capability Class - Proportion of Map Unit with Dominant ConditionNon-Irrigated Capability Class - Dominant ConditionNon-Irrigated Capability Class - Proportion of Map Unit with Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings without Basements - Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings with Basements - Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings with Basements - Least LimitingRating for Buildings with Basements - Most LimitingRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Dominant ConditionRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Least LimitingRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Most LimitingRating for Sewage Lagoons - Dominant ConditionRating for Sewage Lagoons - Dominant ComponentRating for Roads and Streets - Dominant ConditionRating for Sand Source - Dominant ConditionRating for Sand Source - Most ProbableRating for Paths and Trails - Dominant ConditionRating for Paths and Trails - Weighted AverageErosion Hazard of Forest Roads and Trails - Dominant ComponentHydric Classification - PresenceRating for Manure and Food Processing Waste - Weighted AverageComponent Table – Dominant ComponentMap units have one or more components.

USA Cropland is a time-enabled imagery layer of the USDA Cropland Data Layer dataset from the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). The time series shows the crop grown during every growing season in the conterminous US since 2008. Use the time slider to select only one year to view or analyze. Press play to see each growing season displayed sequentially in an animated map. The USDA is now serving the Cropland Data Layer in their own application called CroplandCros which allows selection and display of a single product or growing season. This application will eventually replace their popular CropScape application. Dataset SummaryVariable mapped: Crop grown in each pixel since 2008.Data Projection: AlbersMosaic Projection: AlbersExtent: Conterminous USACell Size: 30m in 2008-2023, 10m in 2024Source Type: ThematicVisible Scale: All scales are visibleSource: USDA NASSPublication Date: 2/26/2025 Why USA Cropland living atlas layer masks out NLCD land cover in its default templateUSDA Cropland Data Layer, by default as downloaded from USDA, fills in the non-cultivated areas of the conterminous USA with land cover classes from the MRLC National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD). The default behavior for Esri"s USA Cropland layer is a little bit different. By default the Esri USA Cropland layer uses the analytic renderer, which masks out this NLCD data. Why did we choose to mask out the NLCD land cover classes by default? While crops are updated every year from USDA NASS, the NLCD data changes every several years, and it can be quite a bit older than the crop data beside it. If analysis is conducted to quantify landscape change, the NLCD-derived pixels will skew the results of the analysis because NLCD land cover in a yearly time series may appear to remain the same class for several years in a row. This can be problematic because conclusions drawn from this dataset may underrepresent the amount of change happening to the landscape. To display the most current land cover available from both sources, add both the USA NLCD Land Cover service and USA Cropland time series to your map. Use the analytical template with the USA Cropland service, and draw it on top of the USA NLCD Land Cover service. When a time slider is used with these datasets together, the map user will see the most current land cover from both services in any given year. This layer and the data making up the layer are in the Albers map projection. Albers is an equal area projection, and this allows users of this layer to accurately calculate acreage without additional data preparation steps. This also means it takes a tiny bit longer to project on the fly into web Mercator, if that is the destination projection of the layer. Processing templates available with this layerTo help filter out and display just the crops and land use categories you are interested in showing, choose one of the thirteen processing templates that will help you tailor the symbols in the time series to suit your map application. The following are the processing templates that are available with this layer: Analytic RendererUSDA Analytic RendererThe analytic renderer is the default template. NLCD codes are masked when using analytic renderer processing templates. There is a default esri analytic renderer, but also an analytic renderer that uses the original USDA color scheme that was developed for the CropScape layers. This is useful if you have already built maps with the USDA color scheme or otherwise prefer the USDA color scheme. Cartographic RendererUSDA Cartographic RendererThese templates fill in with NLCD land cover types where crops are not cultivated, thereby filling the map with color from coast to coast. There is also a template using the USDA color scheme, which is identical to the datasets as downloaded from USDA NASS. In addition to different ways to display the whole dataset, some processing templates are included which help display the top agricultural products in the United States. If these templates seem to include too many crops in their category (for example, tomatoes are included in both the fruit and vegetables templates), this is because it"s easier for a map user to remove a symbol from a template than it is to add one. Corn - Corn, sweet corn, popcorn or ornamental corn, plus double crops with corn and another crop.Cotton - Cotton and double crops, includes double crops with cotton and another crop.Fruit - Symbolized fruit crops include not only things like melons, apricots, and strawberries, but also olives, avocados, and tomatoes.Nuts - Peanuts, tree nuts, sunflower, etc.Oil Crops - Oil crops include rapeseed and canola, soybeans, avocado, peanut, corn, safflower, sunflower, also cotton and grapes.Permanent Crops - Crops that do not need to be replanted after harvest. Includes fruit and nut trees, caneberries, and grapes.Rice - Rice crops.Sugar - Crops grown to make sugars. Sugar beets and cane are displayed of course, but so are corn and grapes.Soybeans - Soybean crops. Includes double crops where soybeans are grown at some time during the growing season.Vegetables - Vegetable crops, and yes this includes tomatoes.Wheat - Winter and spring wheat, durum wheat, triticale, spelt, and wheat double crops. In many places, two crops were grown in one growing season. Keep in mind that a double crop of corn and soybeans will display in both the corn and soybeans processing templates. What can you do with this layer?This layer is suitable for both visualization and analysis acrossthe ArcGIS system. This layer can be combined with your data and other layers from the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World in ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Pro to create powerful web maps that can be used alone or in a story map or other application.
