nlcd

container build status

Using

If my_address_file_geocoded.csv is a file in the current working directory with coordinate columns named lat and lon, then the DeGAUSS command:

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/tmp ghcr.io/degauss-org/nlcd:1.0.0 my_address_file_geocoded.csv

will produce my_address_file_geocoded_nlcd_1.0.0_400m_buffer.csv with an added column, nlcd_frac_impervious, which is the fractional percent imperviousness among all 30 x 30 meter NLCD cells within a 400 m buffer of each input point. Currently, 2023 NLCD from the annual NLCD data product is returned.

Earlier versions (< v1.0.0) of degauss-org/nlcd relied on cloud-hosted data that are not currently available. Use a more recent version (>=v1.0.0) that instead relies on data hosted directly on the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics Consortium webpage.

Optional Argument

The default buffer radius is 400 meters, but can be changed by supplying an optional argument to the degauss command. For example,

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/tmp ghcr.io/degauss-org/nlcd:1.0.0 my_address_file_geocoded.csv 800

will produce my_address_file_geocoded_nlcd_1.0.0_800m_buffer.csv, and all output will be values within an 800 m buffer.

Geomarker Methods and Data
