 "description": "This data represents a land use survey of Santa Clara County conducted by the California Department of Water Resources, North Central Regional Office staff. Land use field boundaries were digitized with ArcGIS 10.3 using 2012 U.S.D.A National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) one-meter imagery as the base. Agricultural fields were delineated by following actual field boundaries instead of using the centerlines of roads to represent the field borders. Field boundaries were reviewed and updated using 2014 Landsat 8 imagery and 2014 U.S.D.A National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) one-meter imagery after it became available in late 2014. The county boundary is based on the CalFire updated State and County boundary layer dated 2009. Field boundaries were not drawn to represent legal parcel (ownership) boundaries, and are not meant to be used as parcel boundaries. The field work for this survey was conducted from June 16, 2014 through July 24, 2014. Images, land use boundaries and ESRI ArcMap software were loaded onto laptop computers that were used as the field data collection tools. Staff took these laptops into the field and virtually all agricultural fields were visited to identify the land use. Global positioning System (GPS) units connected to the laptops were used to confirm the surveyor's location with respect to the fields. Land use codes were digitized in the field using dropdown selections from defined domains. Upon completion of the survey, a Python script was used to convert the data table into the standard land use format. ArcGIS geoprocessing tools and topology rules were used to locate errors for quality control.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. 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 not identified for most areas. The exception is the area of the Corde Valle Golf Course near San Martin and a few nearby fields where recycled water is used as a water source in addition to groundwater.Before final processing, standard quality control procedures were performed jointly by staff at DWR\u2019s North Central Region, 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.",
