Brief description
Spatial input data for the cover factor parameter of the hillslope erosion module of the dSedNet model to simulate sediment generation and transport in the Western Port catchment for a 2018-19 study commissioned by Melbourne Water.Lineage: Monthly cover factor grids were calculated from MODIS satellite-derived bare ground index (BGI) data (Paget and King, 2008) from February 2000 to May 2018. BGI data were inverted and relationships between ground cover and cover factor based on tabulated ranges for different vegetation types given in Rosewell (1993), were used to calculate cover factors for different land uses. The workflow was executed within the ArcGIS (version 10.2) environment.
