What are Landscape Analysis Layers?
• A streaming authoritative-source data library to support biogeographic analysis, natural resource management, land use planning and conservation
- Currently approx. 200 services
- 3 Groups: Landscape Analysis Layers, Elevation Layers, Landscape for Contributors
- International coverage starting with Africa
- Focused on national and regional scales … …

Introduction to theLandscape Data
What’s Different About Landscape?
Esri is modernizing its content offerings by providing a large body of application ready DATA (not just maps, which are pictures of data) as services:
• Image Services
• Map Services w/ feature access
• Story Maps that show examples of use
Provide content that supports ANALYSIS as well as visualization

Landscape Data
Value of Landscape
• Saves time and money
• User does not have to acquire, process, store, maintain essential data themselves
• Esri provides ready to use content- Input to models
• Landscape for Contributors for provider-direct content- Valuable content for users- Exposure to wider audience for providers

Data Criteria
• Data that has a proven use case- Support for Key Performance Measurements (KPM) in Government- Support for Strategic Planning and Policy Development- Scale ranges that can support regional and national analysis
- Larger-scale, limited-area data served/maintained by provider- Cost and benefits considered for each layer
• Data that is considered authoritative- Measured, summarized, or modeled- Well documented- Currency is important
Esri Evaluates and Documents the Quality and Integrity of Data
- Review data via hardcopy plots, digital overlays
- Identify layers that are likely to be correlated/integrated
- Find the inconsistencies, problems with integrity, problems buried in process lineages
- We employ a subcontractor to provide and independent evaluation of data
- Provide quality assessments and recommendations to original authors
Identify gaps in available data and find opportunities for adding value
What Changes Do We Make to the Original data?
• Minimal corrections to geometry or attributes (quick error fixes)
• Project to Web Mercator (maps) or Equal Area (raster and vector
data)
• Convert Vector to Raster
• Clip to a Shoreline
• We may parse out a subset of data such as creating a raster for one
soil parameter
We are careful to preserve the integrity of the original content

World Elevation Layers: What’s NewReady-to-use content for visualization and analysis of earth’s surface
• End of Beta for Elevation Layers- Recent updates (SRTM 4.1, EarthEnv-DEM90)- New Multi-Directional hill shade- Community contributions now being accepted- Public sources are updated as new DEM’s come available
• New community contributed content- USA - FEMA Lidar DTM- Intl. - Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Great Britain.
• Road Ahead: - Expanded high-resolution coverage through community
contributions- New Analysis Layers – Curvature and Roughness- Elevation integration into 3D
Additional Planned Landscape Content - 2015
• Ecological units for oceans• Additional US content: Forests to Faucets, USFS FIA layers,
possibly USGS BISON (species occurrence) data• Global IUCN Red List Species diversity layer• Update summarization for location analytics (10 layers) • Human geography data (TBD at this point)• Use case-specific WRO services for GeoPlanner (possibly new
group within Landscape on AGOL)o One currently available through AGOL (the containing the
new ecophysiographic data)• Scientific data tool that would allow complete workflow of
discovery, processing, serving• NHD High Resolution• 2014 TIGER Roads and Road Density• SSURGO - update existing services, add new tables and
possibly a couple more image services • USA Wetlands – update• USA Flood Risk (FMEA Flood Zones) - update• USA Critical Habitat - update• USA Wilderness Areas – update
• USA USFWS Lands – update• USA USFS Lands - update• USA BLM Lands – update• USA Woody Biomass – update• Update ESA GlobeCover and produce updated EFs, ELUs, and
Land Units Map.• Update Landforms layer by tweaking algorithm• Develop ITUs from landforms and other layers
o Based on intersection of aggregated landforms and approx. HUC8-level watersheds
• Charles Convis’ vectorized land cover• Approach World Research Institute for some of their datasets,
in particular their global primary and secondary landscape classifications
• EPA EnviroAtlas data (they would serve, with our advice)• University of Maryland services (forest cover, forest loss
available)
