Letter from C. D. Dawson to Carl Hayden urging him to consider the rights of miners and farmers when drawing up the boundaries for the proposed park.
This memorandum analyzed fourteen mapping efforts that have taken place in the past decades, or that are ongoing. About half of these initiatives created data that is useful for a basemap for regional bio-planning purposes. Analysis provides advice about how future research and mapping initiatives within Pima County can gather data in a more effective manner.
Pima County assembled a comprehensive land cover map for the the SDCP and in the process of doing so, identified the strengths and weaknesses of prior mapping efforts. In order to combine the best aspects of past efforts, a common language had to be established among the classification systems.
