The CORINE Land Cover update to the year 2000 (CLC2000), called Image and Corine Land Cover 2000 project (I&CLC2000), schedules the acquisition of remotely sensed Landsat 7 ETM+ images (Image 2000), the production of the geographical database of land cover for the year 2000 and the assessment of the land cover/land use changes between the years 199...
The implementation of CLC2006 focuses mainly on the identification and mapping of land cover changes between 2000 and 2006. CLC2006 is scheduled as a direct continuation of previous Corine land cover mapping campaigns. Land cover changes larger than 5 ha must be mapped, regardless of location. As in previous years, the work is a shared approach bet...
The Corine/Land Cover map has been produced for the 27 countries of the European Union. As an example, the case of Italy is presented to clarify the general approach used in Europe. The original interpretation of CORINE/Land Cover for the year 1990 (CLC90) did not have a homogeneous implementation in Italy nor a standardized methodology of realizat...
The comparison between classification systems based on pre-defined classes highlights the limit of the method for both regional and global applications. Due to excessive rigidity, these classification systems are often limited to defined geographical areas and drawn for a specific kind of application. The systems described present a lack of clearne...

Feb 19, 1997 · Land use refers to the human activities that are directly related to the land. The interpretations are based on a land use and land cover system developed for use with remotely sensed data. The hierarchical classification has 2 defined levels. Land cover describes the vegetation, water, natural surface, and man-made features of the land.
All other NLCD 2011 products were created on a path/row basis and mosaicked to create a seamless national product. Questions about the NLCD 2011 land cover product can be directed to the NLCD 2011 land cover mapping team at the USGS/EROS, Sioux Falls, SD (605) 594-6151 or mrlc@usgs.gov.
