What is Land Cover? [PDF]

open access: possibleEnvironment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2005
Much geographic information is an interpretation of reality and it is possible for multiple interpretations to coexist. This is unproblematic for the research community but, as the numbers of users increase through initiatives resulting in data integration on an unprecedented scale, such as E-science and GRID, issues of information meaning and ...

Land cover and land-cover change from MODIS

1995 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, IGARSS '95. Quantitative Remote Sensing for Science and Applications, 2002
The MODIS land cover and land-cover change products are global products that will be derived from MODIS data following the launch of the MODIS instrument in 1998. The land cover product will provide about 20 classes of land cover based largely on major life-form vegetation types.

Land Use and Land Cover

2021
The land is one of the major components of the Earth’s surface. Land with anthropogenic activities and interaction is known as land use and land with natural status is recognized as land cover. This chapter deals with the overall land use and land cover (LULC) pattern of Nepal, with the changing trends of major LULC types.

Land Use and Land Cover Change of Ghana

IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
Land use and cover change (LUCC) is a central component in current strategies for managing natural resources and monitoring environmental change. In this paper, we used maximum likelihood classification algorithm to obtain the supervised land use and cover classification. Four major land use and cover classes are identified and mapped from 2000 to 2015.

The use of land cover change likelihood for improving land cover classification

2017 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2017
The likelihood of transitions between pairs of land cover and land use classes in a given time interval and environmental context can be used to impose classification restrictions on an image or to evaluate results. This study presents a methodology for using the likelihood of transitions between classes to improve land cover classification, given a ...
