In 2008, The Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC) conducted the Miami Valley Land Development Suitability Assessment. It was the final portion of the existing conditions study of “Going Places – An Integrated Land Use Vision for the Miami Valley Region.” The main purpose of this assessment was to examine the regional landscape in a comprehensive manner and to identify developable land that was not currently fully developed and/or protected.
My role in this project was to design the methodology, conduct the analysis, draft the report, and create the supporting maps, graphics, and tables. To assist with GIS data analysis, I automated the process via ModelBuilder so that data could be readily re-evaluated when new data became available.
