DIGITAL MAPPING OF FARMLAND CLASSES IN THREE LANDSCAPE IN MEXICO

The cartography of farmland classes allows generating land maps, using a methodology based on local knowledge, rapidly and at low cost, and with a greater number of cartographic units than conventional soil surveys maps. However, the results found when producing these maps with automated cartography...

description The cartography of farmland classes allows generating land maps, using a methodology based on local knowledge, rapidly and at low cost, and with a greater number of cartographic units than conventional soil surveys maps.

Precision and accuracy were evaluated in 324 computer generated farmland class (FLC) maps by applying the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) interpolation model. These maps were obtained by varying the sample size for the training, its spatial design, and the Power value of the interpolator.
