Using multisource data in global land-cover characterization: concepts, requirements, and methods Using multisource data in global land-cover characterization: concepts, requirements, and methods
Global land-cover data are needed as baseline information for global change research. Multisource data, both coarse resolution satellite data and ancillary data, were used to produce a land-cover characteristics database for the conterqinous United States. Ancillary data, including elevation and ecological region data sets, were critical to the development, refinement, and information...

Organizations challenged by global database development Organizations challenged by global database development
Several international programs have identified the need for a global 1-kilometer spatial database for land cover and land characterization studies. In 1992, the US Geological Survey (USGS) EROS Data Center (EDC), the European Space Agency (ESA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will collect and archive...

Development of a land-cover characteristics database for the conterminous U.S. Development of a land-cover characteristics database for the conterminous U.S.
Information regarding the characteristics and spatial distribution of the Earth's land cover is critical to global environmental research. A prototype land-cover database for the conterminous United States designed for use in a variety of global modelling, monitoring, mapping, and analytical endeavors has been created. The resultant database contains multiple layers, including the source...
