Land cover data for Southeast Asia (2015)

Land cover data for Southeast Asia (2015)


This data is the land cover data at 30m resolution of Southeast Asia in 2015. The data format of the data is NetCDF, and the variable name is "land cover type". The data was obtained by mosaicing and extracting the From-GLC data. Several land cover types, such as snow and ice that do not exist in Southeast Asia were eliminated.The legend were reintegrated to match the new data. The data provide information of 8 land cover types: cropland, forest, grassland, shrub, wetland, water, city and bare land. The overall accuracy of the data is 71% (Gong et al., 2019). The data can provide the land cover information of Southeast Asia for hydrological models and regional climate models.


File naming and required software

File name: the data is stored in NetCDF format. The file name is "land cover type in Southeast Asia.nc", and the variable name in NetCDF file is "land cover type".
Read and write: the data can be read by commonly used computer languages that can process NetCDF file, such as Python, MATLAB and R language.
