Evaluation of ESA CCI prototype land cover map at 20m
In September 2017, the ESA CCI Land Cover Team released a prototype land cover (LC) map at 20 m resolution over Africa for the year 2016. This is the first LC map produced at such a high resolution covering an entire continent for the year 2016. To help improve the quality of this product, we have assessed its overall accuracy and identified regions ...
