Landuse Analysis Austin Troy’s Landuse Raster Dataset Inconsistent pixelation, distored landuse counts in each watershed In the future: overlay watersheds on landuse layer, count total pixels of each landcover type Austin Troy’s Landuse Raster Dataset Inconsistent pixelation, distored landuse counts in each watershed In the future: overlay watersheds on landuse layer, count total pixels of each landcover type
7
Roads Definition Any impervious surface, paved or heavily compacted Miles of road in each watershed Non-point source for phosphorus, toxic substances, land fragmenation, and barrier to aquatic organisms Roads layer provided by Habitat Fragmentation group In future: divide by watershed, determine total road miles Any impervious surface, paved or heavily compacted Miles of road in each watershed Non-point source for phosphorus, toxic substances, land fragmenation, and barrier to aquatic organisms Roads layer provided by Habitat Fragmentation group In future: divide by watershed, determine total road miles

Marinas Definition Areas where boats are docked, fueled, and used as ports Ferries included Toxic substances, barriers to aquatic organisms, invasive species, and recreation Data From VCGI and NYSGIS Discrepancy between layers Areas where boats are docked, fueled, and used as ports Ferries included Toxic substances, barriers to aquatic organisms, invasive species, and recreation Data From VCGI and NYSGIS Discrepancy between layers
10
Waste Water Treatment Plant Definition Human and industrial waste water Point source for phosphorus, toxic substances, and pathogens Selected from EPA registered polluters Human and industrial waste water Point source for phosphorus, toxic substances, and pathogens Selected from EPA registered polluters
11
Dams A barrier to obstruct the flow of water Land fragmentation and barriers to aquatic organisms Data from NYSGIS and VCGI All dams are given equal weight A barrier to obstruct the flow of water Land fragmentation and barriers to aquatic organisms Data from NYSGIS and VCGI All dams are given equal weight
