Description
Urban Habitat Mapping has developed as part of the England Green Infrastructure Mapping Database over the last 4 years. A set of pilot and trialling exercises has produced data across a range of urban areas in England. As the project has developed, data has been produced using a series of adapted methods. This project will produce a "final" method by integrating some adjustments into a final approach for use in the Trimble eCognition software environment. The final method will then be used to adjust (and where necessary reprocess) the data for all areas that are currently covered by the Urban Habitat Mapping. Shapefiles of the Areas of interest are available on request. These files provide the outline of the actual area to be mapped and give area size. The project is anticipated to begin in late July 2025 and be completed by the end of February 2026.
