This imagery constitutes the basis for the National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD 2001) and the NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP). This land cover map was refined to the State of Maine requirements using SPOT 5 panchromatic imagery from 2004. The Landsat imagery used was for three seasons: early spring (leaf-off), summer, and early fall (senescence) and was collected with a spatial resolution of 30 m. The SPOT 5 panchromatic imagery was collected at a spatial resolution of 5 m during the spring and summer months of 2004. The map was developed in two distinct stages, the first stage was the development of a state wide land cover data set consistent with the NOAAC-CAP land cover map. The second stage was: a) the update to 2004 conditions, b) a refinement of the classification system to Maine specific classes and, c) a refinement of the spatial boundaries to create a polygon map based on 5 m imagery.", "summary": "Maine Land Cover Dataset (MLCD).", "title": "earthCoverMelcd", "tags": [ "imageryBaseMapsEarthCover", "landuse", "landcover", "MLCD", "Maine Land Cover Dataset", "MaineGIS", "MaineGeoLibrary" ], "type": "Image Service", "typeKeywords": [ "Data", "Service", "Image Service", "ArcGIS Server" ], "thumbnail": "", "url": "https://gis.maine.gov:6443/arcgis", "minScale": 4622324.434309, "maxScale": 144447.638572, "spatialReference": "WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere", "accessInformation": "MaineGIS", "licenseInfo": "Access: Public.  Use: User accepts risk." }
