  • This data set consists of mosaicked color infrared 1994 aerial photography for the CWPPRA project, Clear Marais (CS-22). The data are used as base map data for either land/water analysis and/or habitat change analysis. The imagery also serves as a visual tool for project managers to assist them in land loss or any other obvious problems within the project boundary.

  • This data set consists of an unsupervised classification of land and water for the year 1994 for the CWPPRA project, Clear Marais (CS-22). The data are generated using the color infrared mosaicked imagery for that year. The data are used by project managers for each site in order to get a general overview of land loss. This data can be compared to the same type of data from previous years to conduct trend analysis.
