(1) Slope Gradient Constraint: Limitations due to steepness of slope can impact which landscapes can be used for certain land use practices. In Lab08, you generated a slope gradient raster data set from TC_elev_utm83. Now, you will reclassify the continuous raster that will yield two slope gradient classes indicating “Suitable” (<=15%) and “Unsuitable” (>15%) landscapes for bio-fuel crop production.
(2) Land Use/Land Cover Constraint: Limitations due to existing, intensive or inappropriate land use activities need to be assessed. From the Landcov10 raster data set that you produced back in Lab 4, you will now further generalize the land cover types into
