Product details

Name Corine Land Cover Plus Backbone - Land Cover Raster Product
Acronym CLC+BB
Description The CLC+ Backbone - Land Cover Raster product with 11 land cover classes is derived by pixel-based classification targeting the operational production of a consistent, high-quality, wall-to-wall Raster Product for the CLC+ Backbone (MMU of 100 m² or 10m*10m) with an overall accuracy of 90% and per class commission/omission errors limited to not more than 15%. The raster product serves to classify the CLC+ landscape objects with the dominant LC class and provide basic LC statistics for each object and is available for reference year 2018 and 2021. The production of reference year 2023 is currently ongoing.
