Summary


This high-resolution vector dataset consists of land cover tree canopy derived from countywide multispectral imagery.

This tree canopy layer was extracted by Ecopia by leveraging AI-based classification of aerial imagery collected in 2023 for the area of interest (AOI) in King County, in conjunction land cover classification data.

Random locations were QC’d by King County employees for accuracy.

This dataset is not intended for use as a surveyed product.

King County makes no representations or warranties, expressed or implied, as to accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or rights to the use of such information.

Description


This Landcover Forest dataset contains areas >500 sq.

ft dominated by trees generally greater than 15 ft tall and greater than 20% of the total vegetation cover.

Landcover Forest layer may overlap with underlying land cover classifications and is intended to show the extent of tree canopy during the full foliage season.

Because this imagery was only collected during the leaf-on season, the differentiation between deciduous, evergreen, and mixed forest canopy is unclear.
