High resolution land cover dataset for Virginia Beach, Virginia. Seven land cover classes were mapped: (1) tree canopy, (2) grass/shrub, (3) bare earth, (4) water, (5) buildings, (6) roads, and (7) other paved surfaces. The primary sources used to derive this land cover layer were 2018 LiDAR data and 2018 NAIP imagery. Ancillary data sources included GIS data provided by Virginia Beach, Virginia Beach, Virginia or created by the UVM Spatial Analysis Laboratory. Object-based image analysis techniques (OBIA) were employed to extract land cover information using the best available remotely sensed and vector GIS datasets. OBIA systems work by grouping pixels into meaningful objects based on their spectral and spatial properties, while taking into account boundaries imposed by existing vector datasets. Within the OBIA environment a rule-based expert system was designed to effectively mimic the process of manual image analysis by incorporating the elements of image interpretation (color/tone, texture, pattern, location, size, and shape) into the classification process. A series of morphological procedures were employed to insure that the end product is both accurate and cartographically pleasing. Following the automated OBIA mapping a detailed manual review of the dataset was carried out at a scale of 1:3500 and all observable errors were corrected.

This dataset has been published by the Office of the Real Estate Assessor of the City of Virginia Beach and data.virginiabeach.gov. The mission of data.virginiabeach.gov is to provide timely and accurate City information to increase government transparency and access to useful and well organized data by the general public, non-governmental organizations, and City of Virginia Beach employees.

High resolution land cover dataset for Virginia Beach, VA. Seven land cover classes were mapped: (1) tree canopy, (2) grass/shrub, (3) bare earth, (4) water, (5) buildings, (6) roads, and (7) other paved surfaces. The minimum mapping unit for the delineation of features was set at 3x3 square feet.

The primary sources used to derive this land cover layer were (1) NAIP 2008 imagery derived from the compressed county mosaic, (2) Normalized digital surface model (nDSM) for Virginia Beach, VA, generated from 2004 light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data representing a 2ft surface. Ancillary data sources used were GIS vector planimetrics layers containing buildings, roads, utility lines, and surface water, provided by the City of Virginia Beach to aid in classification. This land cover dataset is considered current as of November, 2009.

"This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the breakdown of the land cover classes with each Census Block Group. In this community, forest is defined as Trees & Forest, and Woody Wetlands. Green space is defined as Trees & Forest, Grass & Herbaceous, Agriculture, Woody Wetlands, and Emergent Wetlands. Agriculture is defined as Agriculture alone.Wetlands are defined as Woody Wetlands and Emergent Wetlands. This dataset also includes the area per capita for each block group for some land cover types. 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.

Areas represent dam break inundation zones based on individual dam/spillway designs. Development within this boundary shall be studied to determine if or how the dam’s hazard rating is effected, and the results shall be reviewed and approved by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation. Developing within this boundary may raise the hazard classification of the dam and require improvements at the expense of the developer and the dam owner. The PMF ( Probable Maximum Flood) is caused by the PMP (Probable Maximum Precipitation) of 38” in 24 hours. The average precipitation for Virginia Beach is 48” per year.

Assessing the physical change to shorelines and wetlands is critical in determining the resiliency of wetland systems that protect adjacent habitat and communities. The wetland and back-barrier shorelines of Assateague Island, located in Maryland and Virginia, changed as a result of wave action and storm surge that occurred during Hurricane Sandy, which made landfall on October 29, 2012. The impact of Hurricane Sandy will be assessed and placed in its historical context to understand the future vulnerability of wetland systems. Making these assessments will rely on data extracted from current and historical resources such as maps, aerial photographs, satellite imagery, and lidar elevation data, which document physical changes over time. This USGS Data Series publication includes several open-ocean shorelines, back-island shorelines, back-island shoreline points, sand area polygons, and sand lines for Assateague Island that were extracted from orthoimagery (ortho aerial photography) dated from April 12, 1989 to September 5, 2013. This dataset consists of polygons that represent the sand areas found in orthoimagery taken on the date specified in the filename and in the Date_ field in the feature attribute table. Orthoimagery of Assateague Island were acquired in digital format from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Virginia Geographic Information Network (VGIN) courtesy of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Prior to processing, the images were trimmed to the Assateague Island area. Using ERDAS Imagine 9.3, the images were classified into 10-40 classes that were coded either sand or not sand. Using ArcGIS 10.1, the resulting coded raster datasets were converted to polygons and edited. The following list provides additional details about the orthoimagery used. The sand areas for each date is in a separate dataset (shapefile) named asis_sand_po_*.shp where the date, in YYYYMMDD format, replaces the asterisk. The orthoimage date for each polygon is also included in the shapefile attribute table Date_ field.
