The projects will investigate methods for producing urban and rural baseline land use data sets for the whole of England and are significant next step towards the long term aim of NLUD to produce a complete and consistent geographical record of land use at the national level, which is kept up to date. The urban research will concentrate initially on the land use data associated with DNF, whereas the rural research will concentrate on the DETR funded Land Cover Map 2000. Both projects will then branch out to look at other data sources including aerial photography and satellite derived information. The projects are due to report in April 2001.
