Coastal Zones Land Cover / Land Use (CLMS Coastal Zones) |
| Description |
Maintained and distributed as part of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) Local / Priority Area Component, Coastal Zones 2018 provides detailed Land Cover and Land Use (LC/LU) information for areas along European coastlines (covering a buffer zone derived from EU-Hydro). For this catalog entry, the 2018 version (Version 1.0, reference year 2018) was used. Extracted from Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite data and auxiliary sources for the reference period 2017–2019, the classification adheres to a pre-defined nomenclature combining the MAES (Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services) typology and CORINE Land Cover guidelines. It features 71 distinct thematic classes with a Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) of 0.5 ha and a Minimum Mapping Width (MMW) of 10 m. |
