Leesburg, VA Urban Tree Canopy

This link allows you to view urban tree canopy analysis for the Town of Leesburg, VA as conducted by the Spatial Analysis Laboratory of the University of Vermont's Rubenstein School of the Environment and Natural Resources using USDA Forest Service's UTC assessment protocols.

The goal of this project was to apply the USDA Forest Service's UTC assessment protocols to the Town of Leesburg.  The UTC assessment protocols make use of high resolution geospatial datasets (satellite imagery, property boundaries), enabling UTC metrics to be computed at the parcel level.  UTC metrics provide detailed information on a community's urban forest, and form the basis for UTC goal setting.  [per report's Project Background]
