Ecopia AI Unveils New Agricultural Land Use Data Layers
Ecopia AI has launched new agricultural land use vector data layers, enhancing its 3D Nationwide Land Cover dataset with greater detail. These layers assist government agencies in conducting detailed geospatial analyses, including water usage, tax assessment, and land development.
The dataset, initially released in 2022, provides high-precision 2D and 3D feature classes for various land types. The new layers enable more specific classifications, such as differentiating ‘grass’ into ‘developed open space’ or ‘wild grass,’ and ‘agriculture’ into ‘pasture’ or ‘cultivated crops.’
Brandon Palin, Senior Director at Ecopia, stated, “Vector data with this level of detail has long been too resource-intensive or expensive for government organizations to produce at scale, and we are proud to leverage our advanced AI-powered systems to provide stakeholders with the geospatial insights needed to make informed decisions related to climate resilience, land use planning, and urban development.”
Ecopia AI’s new data layers align with existing environmental datasets, such as those produced by the USGS and NOAA, further enhancing their utility in geospatial analytics. By offering high-resolution land cover data that is both accurate and current, Ecopia’s solutions are set to play a crucial role in supporting government agencies’ environmental stewardship and urban planning efforts across the United States. With these advancements, stakeholders can make more informed decisions, ensuring that resources are allocated effectively and sustainably.
