• <br />• <br />16. Application and/or Dissemination of Project Results, Products, and Data <br />Required Attachment #5: Explanation of dissemination of project results, products, and <br />data, and public information. <br />The final products for the proposed project will be a comprehensive land cover data layer for the <br />proposed 38,643 acre project area. Land cover will be classified to a minimum of level three for <br />all polygons, and to level four or greater for areas with distinct aerial photograph signatures and/or <br />permission to access and field check. Newly developed areas will be field checked and recorded, <br />providing a current (1999 -2000) representation of land cover within the proposed project area. <br />The land cover classification data collected and field checked during the course of this proposed <br />project will be entered into ArcView GIS data layers. The format of these data layers will be fully <br />compliant with the Minnesota Land Cover Classification System standards and methodology, and <br />the MetroGIS project's metadata standards. Land cover will be digitized in UTM NAD83 <br />coordinate system, and can easily be transformed to fit to the Anoka County coordinate system or <br />other coordinate systems. Furthermore, these data will be readily transferable for use with the <br />ArcInfo GIS software system. GIS data will be `burned' onto writable CD -ROMs or made <br />available through other data clearinghouses within the metro area. The intent of this project is to <br />fully collaborate with other municipalities and government agencies conducting land cover <br />classification and GIS data development within the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Some <br />administrative and data- transfer costs may be required, depending on the demand for this <br />information and availability of staff time and resources. <br />In addition to creating a the digital land cover data layer(s), `hard -copy' printouts will be produced <br />for circulation among collaborating organizations and local units of government. Furthermore, <br />public presentations will be given to inform municipalities and local citizens of the purpose of the <br />project and the applications of land cover data to the planning and development process. <br />Ultimately, the land cover data will be used to conduct landscape -scale analyses of current <br />vegetation and land use patterns, identify potential areas for ecological and cultural landscape <br />connections, assist in the prioritization of acquisition and restoration sites, and provide a <br />comprehensive systems for landscape planning and design review. Watershed districts <br />collaborating in this project will be able to use these data to assess extent and condition of wetland <br />resources in the project area, including such factors as wetland hydrologic regime, connectivity, <br />vegetation type and complexity, and wildlife habitat functions and values, and many other upland <br />and wetland characteristics. <br />Rice Creek Corridor Expansion Greenway Planning Grant <br />Anoka Conservation District and Collaborating Agencies <br />Page 9 of 11 <br />January 28, 2000 <br />
