Denver Census Block Group Irrigation Rates (1995-2018)

The data in this resource represent annual outdoor water use (i.e., irrigation rates) for the City and County of Denver at the 2010 census block group scale from 1995-2018. The resource contains two files: a CSV containing irrigation rates and a shapefile containing the spatial extent of each block group. Further explanation of the remote sensing-based method used to model these data and the data themselves can be found in and cited as: Blount, K., J. Wolfand, C.D. Bell, N.K. Ajami, and T.S. Hogue (In review, 2020). Satellites to sprinklers: Assessing spatiotemporal patterns of outdoor water use using remote sensing. Water Resources Research. Please direct any questions to K. Blount.
