- Abstract:
-
The land use coverage was created as part of the Tijuana River Watershed GIS database project. It includes information on the general land uses in the watershed. These land uses conform to the San Diego Association of Governments general land use classifications, though the SANDAG land use codes are not utiliized.
- Purpose:
-
The Tijuana River Watershed GIS Database project provides a fully integrated cross border geographic information system. The general land use coverage is one of the layers in the data base. It includes information on the general land uses in the watershed. These land uses conform to the San Diego Association of Governments general land use classifications, though the SANDAG land use codes are not utiliized.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
These land use categories are for general purposes only. Not for legal use.

- Attribute_Accuracy:
-
- Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
-
All attributes created during the data generation phase were verified by comparing the lines in both the dataset and the spatial coverage, but no formal tests were performed.
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
-
These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. Line geometry is topologically clean.
- Completeness_Report:
-
These data are believed to represent general land use at a watershed level of measurement. The polygon boundaries are based on aerial photo interpretation utilizing 1:12,500 and 1:50,000 scale photos and SPOT imagery for heads-up digitizing of mapped areas. The land use polygons were believed accurate at the time of compilation, however, further development in the watershed may have altered the polygon boundaries.

Land Use polygons for the United States poriton of the Tijuana River Watershed.
- Process_Step:
-
- Process_Description:
-
Land use polygons in the Mexican portion of the watershed were generated by aerial photography interpretation at scales of 1 : 12,500 and 1 : 50,000. These boundaries were mapped onto mylar sheets overlaying the air photos. The photos and mylars were then used to heads-up digitize the land use polygons using a SPOT image as a reference. Once the boundaries were completed, topology was generated and the polygons were attributed with the proper land use codes and descriptions. The Mexican portion was then merged with the 1995 land use obtained from the San Diego Association of Governments for the United States portion to complete the overall coverage for the watershed.
