Maximum Likelihood Vegetation Classification for the Combined Groundwater Discharge Area and Area of Critical Environmental Concern, Stump Spring, NV

This dataset, created in support of USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2020-5075, Estimates of Groundwater Discharge by Evapotranspiration, Stump Spring and Hiko Springs, Clark County, Nevada, 2016-18, represents a two class land cover classification consisting of moderate to dense vegetation and bare to sparsely vegetated areas within the Groundwater Discharge Area and Area of Critical Environmental Concern boundaries for Stump Spring, Nevada. The classification is based on a 2015 1-meter National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) image and a maximum likelihood classification algorithm provided in ENVI software (https://www.harrisgeospatial.com/docs/Classification.html#ClassSupervised).
