Source_Contribution: location of parcels, which were then coded for land use.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

New Hanover County staff provided an INFO file containing land use codes (numeric) and a unique parcel identifier. Agricultural areas were selected out and Coastal Services Center staff joined these tables by the "PID" attribute, removed several attributes that were not useful to the larger work project and saved the shapefile.
