Wildfire Risk to Communities Building Coverage (Image Service)
This dataset is the Building Coverage (BuildingCover) raster for the United States. It is part of the data publication Wildfire Risk to Communities: Spatial datasets of wildfire risk for populated areas in the United States. BuildingCover is a raster of building density measured as the percent cover of buildings within an approximately 5 acre area around each pixel. It includes all buildings and can be used to complement the HUDen raster, which just reflects residential buildings. BuildingCover was generated using building footprint data from Microsoft (v1.1), building coverage data from USGS, and land cover data from LANDFIRE. BuildingCover is not available in Alaska because source data were not available across the whole state.�<div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.fs.usda.gov/rds/archive/Catalog/RDS-2020-0060" rel="nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Metadata and Downloads.</a>�<div><br></div><div><b>Note:�</b>Pixel values in this image service have been altered from the original raster dataset due to data requirements in web services.
