Assessing Consistency of Five Global Land Cover Data Sets in China
Global land cover mapping with high accuracy is essential to downstream researches. Five global land cover data sets derived from moderate-resolution satellites, i.e., Global Land Cover Characterization (GLCC), University of Maryland land cover product (UMd), Global Land Cover 2000 project data (GLC2000), MODIS Land Cover product (MODIS LC), and GLOBCOVER land cover product (GlobCover), have be...
متن کاملIntegrated Use of Existing Global Land Cover Datasets for Producing a New Global Land Cover Dataset with a Higher Accuracy: A Case Study in Eurasia
It has been commonly acknowledged that the current global mapping projects have encountered the accuracy challenge. By conducting a comparison among the four existing global land cover datasets (MODIS LC, GLC2000, GLCNMO and GLOBCOVER), it has been identified that certain areas’ accuracy has dragged down the overall accuracy of these global land cover datasets. In this paper, those areas have b...
متن کاملComparing and Synthesizing Different Global Agricultural Land Datasets for Crop Allocation Modeling
Cultivated land has been feeding the world for thousands of years. Only in the last few decades, remote sensing is used to assess and monitor the extent and status of cultivated land. One of the greatest challenges when working with existing land cover datasets is the lack of consistent and reliable data on the location and area intensity of cultivation. By most counts land cover datasets ident...
متن کاملEvaluation of MODIS LAI/FPAR Product Collection 6. Part 1: Consistency and Improvements
As the latest version of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR) products, Collection 6 (C6) has been distributed since August 2015. This collection is evaluated in this two-part series with the goal of assessing product accuracy, uncertainty and consistency with the previous version. In this first pa...
متن کاملComparison of Land Cover Characterization Using EOS MISR and MODIS Data and a Decision Tree Classifier
Land cover characterization at a regional scale using spaceborne multi-angle remote sensing data is in its infancy. A data mining technique was employed to evaluate the degree to which the accuracy of land cover classification can be increased using multi-spectral, multi-temporal and multi-angle remote sensing data. The study area is around the Jornada Rangeland in New Mexico, USA with shrublan...
