This data set is comprised of land use classification data necessary for modeling and scaling hydrologic variables as part of the Soil Moisture Experiment of 2004 (SMEX04). Six Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) scenes and one Digital Elevation Model (DEM) were used to construct land use classification for both SMEX04 study regions: Arizona, USA and Sonora, Mexico.
