Service Description: City of Louisville was planning to charge landowners with high amount of impervious surface on their properties to prevent environmental issues brought by impervious surfaces. To help the city make more thought out decision, I produced a map that classified an aerial imagery of the neighborhood in Louisville into pervious and impervious land types.
I used the “classification wizard” to produce a supervised classification for this neighborhood. I also utilized the “tabulate area” tool to help me calculate the impervious and pervious surface area for each parcel given by the city. Then, the map highlighted the area of impervious surfaces per land parcel in graduated colors.
As a result, the roads and driveways had the most impervious surfaces. In addition, the bigger the property the more impervious surface it would have. So, I recommend charging higher storm water runoff fee to landowners with larger properties and long driveways. The owner should also be able to offset a portion of the fees by increasing impervious surface inside their properties.
