Connecticut’s Changing Connecticut’s Changing LandscapeLandscape
What is Connecticut’s Changing Landscape (CCL)?
- An ongoing project that tracks land cover changes in Connecticut’s landscape over time.- Uses Landsat Satellite imagery to derive a consistent set of land cover maps.- Currently nearing completion of a 2006 update.- With the update, will consist of 5 dates of land cover (1985, 1990, 1995, 2002, 2006) consisting of 12 land cover categories.- Also includes products derived from land cover: forest fragmentation, urban growth, impervious surfaces.

SummarySummaryThe land cover products allow us to quantify
land cover and land cover change in Connecticut over a 21 year period and allow us to visualize how we are impacting our landscape.
The derived products provide us with various perspectives about the state of Connecticut’s landscape.
Land Cover should be available online in the next month or so with the derived products following soon after.
