Crosswalk between UrbanSim output and Conservation Module Input (Task1) #3

Closed cschloss closed 6 years ago

cschloss commented 7 years ago

UrbanSim format scenarios to conservation module base land cover data for use as input into the conservation module.

The first task is for TNC to develop a density crosswalk and deliver to UrbanSim to implement

Landscape Type ID Description Density Range (Dwelling Units Per Acre)
721 Developed, Open Space <=0.5 DUA
722 Low Density, Developed 0.5-1.5 DUA
723 Medium Density, Developed >1.5DUA
724 High Density, Developed NA - No break Necessary

Dwelling Units Per Acre should be housing units and job units both.

There is no break above medium density because none of our metrics are sensitive to the difference between medium and high density so distinguishing between the two won’t matter for the run of the conservation module.
