  <overview>
   <eaover>The data show flows of scenic views visible to homeowners for the Puget Sound, Washington State, USA. Data were generated using Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) models that account for the presence of scenic features (e.g., mountains, water bodies) and visual blight (e.g., industrial development) derived from visual preference studies. Homeowners were located based on the centroid of Census block groups, weighted by the population for that block group, and viewsheds to visually valued objects were quantified and weighted for each block group using a line-of-sight algorithm. For more information about the data, see http://aries.integratedmodelling.org/?page_id=1067.</eaover>
   <eadetcit>The entity and attribute information was generated by the individual and/or agency identified as the originator of the data set. Please review the rest of the metadata record for additional details and information.</eadetcit>
