Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. Delineated irrigated acreage in 2005 was field verified from September 26 to 29 and November 1 to 3 , 2005. Fields were visited to confirm that irrigation had occurred in remotely delineated polygons. The irrigation method, crop type, and water source for each field also was inventoried. The location of each delineated field was checked using a handheld GPS. Digital photographs were taken of each field and the bearing and time of each photograph was [...]
