Description: This data represents a land use survey of Kern County conducted by DWR, SJD staff, under the leadership of David Scruggs, Senior Land and Water Use Supervisor. The field work for this survey was conducted during the summer of 2006. SJD staff physically visited each delineated field, noting the crops grown at each location. Field survey boundary data was developed using:1. The county was surveyed with a combination of 2005 one meter and 2006 two meter NAIP imagery. 2. The 2005 images were used in the spring of 2006 to develop the land use field boundary lines that would be used for the summer survey. The 2006 imagery was used for identification in the field and to edit any boundary line changes from the 2005 imagery. 3. These images and land use boundaries were copied onto laptop computers that were used as the field collection tools. The staff took these laptops in the field and virtually all areas were visited to positively identify the land use. The site visits occurred from June through September 2006 (approx.). Land use codes were digitized directly into the laptop computers using AUTOCAD (and a standardized digitizing process) any land use boundaries changes were noted and corrected back in the office. 4. After quality control/assurance procedures were completed on each file (DWG), the data was finalized for the summer survey. The primary focus of this land use survey is mapping agricultural fields. Urban residences and other urban areas were delineated using aerial photo interpretation. Some urban areas may have been missed, especially in forested areas. Rural residential land use was delineated by drawing polygons to surround houses and other buildings along with some of the surrounding land. These footprint areas do not represent the entire footprint of urban land.Sources of irrigation water were identified for general areas and occasionally supplemented by information obtained from landowners. Water source information was not collected for each field in the survey, so the water source listed for a specific agricultural field may not be accurate.Before final processing, standard quality control procedures were performed jointly by staff at DWR's SJD, and at DSIWM headquarters under the leadership of Jean Woods, Senior Land and Water Use Supervisor. After quality control procedures were completed, the data was finalized. The positional accuracy of the digital line work, which is based upon the orthorectified NAIP imagery, is approximately 6 meters. The land use attribute accuracy for agricultural fields is high, because almost every delineated field was visited by a surveyor. The accuracy is 95 percent because some errors may have occurred. Possible sources of attribute errors are: a) Human error in the identification of crop types, b) Data entry errors.
