The land use/land cover map was provided by the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing (KARS) Program. The map was produced using a computer classification of Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) data. Ten classes were identified. The intended use of scale is 1:50,000 with a 2 acre minimum mapping unit.

The dataset was provided through the Soil Conservation Services (SCS) State Soil Geographic Datatbase (STATSGO). The soil maps for STATSGO were created from a generalization of more detailed soil survey maps. Quadragle units (1° X 2°) were merged to create statewide coverages. The intended scale of use is 1:250,000. Caution should be exercised before drawing any interpretations at a county level.

The land use/land cover map was provided by Oklahoma State University. Eighty-eight covertypes, interpreted from county othophotos, were generalized to Twenty-five covertypes. The resolution of the data is 200m X 200m.
