<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Fields include the location of hay, pasture, corn, other crops, and grassy openings at least 1-acre in size or nearly contiguous with other farm fields. Fields also includes vineyards, nurseries, and orchards of any size. Fields were digitized and interpreted by Native Geographic, LLC from leaf-on and leaf-off aerial imagery of multiple vintages. Final determination and extent were based on 2016 NAIP imagery, but 2018 VT Ortho aerial imagery, Google Street View, and the Vermont High Resolution Land Cover data were also consulted. Fields were generally delineated at a scale of a 1:5,000. Throughout the town, fields may be used rotationally for hay, corn, and pasture. Determination of use was based on dominant land use in 2016 imagery. Fields with permanent fences were mapped as pasture. However, this category is likely to include large lawns and fallow fields.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
