Land Use Codes: 100 Level
111 | Residential Less than 2 units per acre.
112 | Residential 2.1 to 7 units per acre (villages, neighborhoods, highway strip houses).
113 | Residential More than 7 units per acre (trailer parks, apartment buildings, condominiums, row homes).
114 | Farmsteads Farm houses, usually associated with and including, barns and outbuildings. (NOT including large, commercial-sized hog/chicken operations - #230). Agricultural production may or may not be active.
120 | Commercial and services Any apparent store, shop, mall, gas station or place of business where large-scale production is not occurring.
130 | Industrial Large buildings that may have production in process.
140 | Transportation and utilities Wide transportation corridors (including 4-lane divided highways), toll booth areas, highway departments, transmission stations, water towers/tanks, sewage treatment plants.
150 | Industrial and commercial complexes Large areas where there are many adjacent industrial plants and/or other businesses. Only used when unable to determine the exact use as either 120 or 130.
160 | Mixed urban or built-up land Densely developed land generally associated with urban centers. This category is often comprised of a mix of other developed land categories (i.e. 113, 120, 150, and 180) and is generally only used where development patterns are too complex to easily delineate separate developed land categories. For this project, this category will be rarely (if ever) used because the 300-scale photos appear to be sufficiently detailed to allow discrimination of separate categories.
170 | Other Areas whose land use does not fit into any particular category or can not be interpreted from the aerial photography.
180 | Institutional Schools, hospitals, or other institutional facilities. Churches and adjoining cemeteries. Stand-alone municipal buildings, including parking/storage areas for municipal equipment (i.e. snow plows). Also, stand-alone fire houses. Usually large buildings, surrounding access road with parking areas some landscaping, well-kept grounds.
190 | Recreational Active Recreation Parks (i.e. ball fields, playgrounds, tennis courts). Also campgrounds, golf courses, hunt clubs.
