Modeling Land-Use and Land-Cover Change

2006
The decade since the initiation of the Land-Use/Cover Change (LUCC) project in 1995 (see Chap. 1) has witnessed considerable advances in the field of modeling of land-use/cover change. The science plan of the project indicated that the major task would be the development of a new generation of land-use/cover change models capable of simulating the ...

CORINE Land Cover and Land Cover Change Products

2014
CORINE Land Cover (CLC) was specified to standardize data collection on land in Europe to support environmental policy development. Since the late 1980s, three iterations of this land cover inventories have been realised (timed around 1990, 2000 and 2006).

Land-Use Land-Cover Change

2013
Land use/land cover changes are occurring at greater pace than ever before in human history. Within the context of land use/land cover change, changes to forest cover are extremely important particularly for rich biodiversity hotspots. This chapter addresses the question: what is the quantum of forest cover loss in the the Hamren sub-division, the Rani-

Land Cover Change

2011
The present chapter discusses an analysis of land cover change based on the enhanced transition matrix, and provides a detailed interpretation of the results of the case study chosen: a protected area in the region of Madrid (central Spain) between 1990 and 2000. The method adopted introduces concepts and indicators to study the statistical information

Remote Sensing of Land Cover and Land Cover Change

2000
An extensive literature describing the use of remote sensing for land cover mapping has emerged since the launch of Landsat-1 in 1974. This includes numerous references to applications that purport to detect or measure change. However, many reported studies are either misleading, in that they describe limited environmental mapping exercises as ...

Spatial Land Cover Pattern Analysis

2016
In the previous chapters we introduced land cover classifications, fractional cover and time-series analysis. All these approaches aimed to extract ecological relevant information based on the spectral signal. However differentiating a tree plantation (spatially regularly planted trees of same species, age, height) from a natural forest based on the ...

Land-Cover Classification

2019
Land-cover classification is an important application area of satellite remote sensing. However, deriving thematic map from satellite imagery through classification approaches is not a straightforward task, especially from high-resolution satellite imagery.
