This layer displays Wiscland2 Coniferous Forest classes at Level3. Classes are assigned colors intended to make them easily distinguishable visually. Coniferous Forest classes indicate upland areas whose canopies have a distinct crown closure of which no less than two-thirds (67%) should be of the coniferous tree group. If the broad-leaved deciduous species group is present, it should not exceed one-third (33%) of the canopy. Wiscland 2 is a raster representation of the land cover throughout the state of Wisconsin as of 2016. The dataset is primarily derived from remote sensing imagery acquired by the Landsat 5, 7, and 8 satellites between 2010 and 2014. Land cover was classified via supervised classification at the native 30 m resolution. The map has a two acre minimum mapping unit, meaning that the smallest feature depicted in the map is approximately nine pixels in size. The land cover data are best utilized at approximate map scales of 1:48,000 to 1:500,000, and at no less than a 2 acre minimum mapping unit (MMU). For estimates of class and regional accuracy, and detailed information on the map production, classification scheme, and class descriptions, see the Wiscland 2 User Guide (https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=b6cff8bd00304b73bb1d32f7678ecf34).
