USDA-NASS 2003 North Dakota Cropland Data Layer
type: Dataset
description: The USDA-NASS 2003 North Dakota Cropland Data Layer is a raster, geo-referenced, categorized land cover data layer produced using satellite imagery from the Thematic Mapper (TM) instrument on Landsat 5 and the Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) on Landsat 7. The imagery was collected between the dates of April 9, 2003 and August 14, 2003. The approximate scale is 1:100,000 with a ground resolution of 30 meters by 30 meters. The North Dakota data layer is aggregated to 16 standardized categories for display purposes with the emphasis being agricultural land cover. This is part of an annual series in which several states are categorized annually based on the extensive field observations collected during the annual NASS June Agricultural Survey. However, no farmer reported data is included or derivable on the Cropland Data Layer CD-ROM.
