Resource Abstract:
- description: This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the percentage of each block group that is classified as impervious, forest,
green space, agriculture, and wetlands. Forest is defined as Trees & Forest and Woody Wetlands. Green space is defined
as Trees & Forest, Grass & Herbaceous, Agriculture, Woody Wetlands, and Emergent Wetlands. Wetlands are defined as
Woody Wetlands and Emergent Wetlands. This dataset also includes the area per capita for each block group for some land cover
types. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas
(https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and
analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas)
or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in
its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).; abstract: This EnviroAtlas
