Specifically, RI DEM is interested in a usable data layer that identifies forest cover in riparian buffers near agricultural lands. To achieve this, FEMC overlayed forest-type raster data, agricultural land data, and riparian buffer zones. The products provide RI DEM with an analysis to inform decision-making for conservation planning, land management, and water quality stewardship efforts in Rhode Island.Rhode Island Cropland and Forest Data LayerRussellAlanaDonisvitchSorenPetersonJacobagricultureforest typeriparian bufferRI Riparian 100m forest and cropland classification2024-06-20RI Riparian 100m forest and cropland classificationVMC.1810.4000mySQL/femc/data/archive/project/rhode-island-cropland-and-forest-data-layer/dataset/ri-riparian-100m-forest-cropland-classification
