Microcomputer-based, statewide, digital land-surface informationThe Center for Remote Sensing at Michigan State University is developing a statewide data base of land-surface information on an ERDAS 400 microcomputer system. The raster file structure uses 1 square-kilometer grid cells and contains 633 columns and 733 rows. The initial elements of this data base include (1) augmented Level I land cover; (2) average available soil water capacity; (3) topographic information; and (4) multiple-vector, windward distance to the Great Lakes. Other elements will be added to the data base in the future in order to serve the multidisciplinary needs of the research community at Michigan State University.
