Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Classification: Objectives and Requirements In land-use planning, however, land classification has a more Specific meaning. Here, it is generally understood to mean the placing of bodies of land into classes which are described in terms of their use - capabilities. Even following this more Specific defini tion, land classification may take a variety of forms. Bodies of land may be classified as to their relative suitability for some use, as is the case when soil types are graded according to their productivity for agriculture or for given creps. In other cases bodies of land may be classified in such a manner as to indicate the enterprises or types of Operating units for which the lands are suited or unsuited. The classification may deal with natural bodies of land, such as soil types, the distinguishing character istics of which are those of the natural or physical environment, or it may be concerned with cultural bodies of land, such as farms, ownership units, or the forty acre tracts of the rectangular land survey, of which it attempts to indicate the difference in use capabilities.
