This layer depicts polygons representing land within the Treasure Valley Model boundary classified as either "irrigated", "non-irrigated" or "semi-irrigated", where the semi-irrigated classification typically depicts residential land.

The original line work that was used as a basis to create this dataset, is the Farm Service Agency’s (FSA) 2014 Common Land Unit (CLU) dataset. Field boundaries were then further refined using National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery, Digital Ortho Photo Quadrangle (DOQQ) imagery, or other high resolution imagery.

Attribute assignments for irrigation status (irrigated, non-irrigated, and semi-irrigated) are determined using available Landsat imagery as background reference. Landsat imagery is typically 30-meter (Landsat5) or 15-meter (Landsat7) resolution. National Agriculture Inventory Program (NAIP) imagery, Digital Ortho Photo Quadrangle (DOQQ) imagery, and other in-house, scanned aerial imagery is used for determining irrigation status and refining the polygon geometry. The interpretation and classification process is described in detail in the report, "2006 Irrigated Land Classification for the Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer" archived on the IDWR website: Legal Actions > Delivery Call Actions > SWC > Archived Matters > Technical Working Group Documents (https://idwr.idaho.gov/legal-actions/delivery-call-actions/SWC/archived-matters.html#twg-documents)
