CORINE Land Cover 1990 (raster 100 m), Europe, 6-yearly - version 2020_20u1, May 2020

Corine Land Cover 1990 (CLC1990) is one of the Corine Land Cover (CLC) datasets produced within the frame the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service referring to land cover / land use status of year 1990. CLC service has a long-time heritage (formerly known as "CORINE Land Cover Programme"), coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA). It provides consistent and thematically detailed information on land cover and land cover changes across Europe. CLC datasets are based on the classification of satellite images produced by the national teams of the participating countries - the EEA members and cooperating countries (EEA39). National CLC inventories are then further integrated into a seamless land cover map of Europe. The resulting European database relies on standard methodology and nomenclature with following base parameters: 44 classes in the hierarchical 3-level CLC nomenclature; minimum mapping unit (MMU) for status layers is 25 hectares; minimum width of linear elements is 100 metres. Change layers have higher resolution, i.e. minimum mapping unit (MMU) is 5 hectares for Land Cover Changes (LCC), and the minimum width of linear elements is 100 metres. The CLC service delivers important data sets supporting the implementation of key priority areas of the Environment Action Programmes of the European Union as e.g. protecting ecosystems, halting the loss of biological diversity, tracking the impacts of climate change, monitoring urban land take, assessing developments in agriculture or dealing with water resources directives. CLC belongs to the Pan-European component of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (https://land.copernicus.eu/), part of the European Copernicus Programme coordinated by the European Environment Agency, providing environmental information from a combination of air- and space-based observation systems and in-situ monitoring.

Copernicus National Boundary Layer with 250 m buffer, version 3, Jan. 2019

For the provision of land monitoring services within COPERNICUS, a consistent, stable, sufficiently detailed boundary layer is required at EEA, which provides a “land mask” for the area that needs to be monitored. This metadata refers to the National Boundary layer both in vector formats (GDB, SHP) and in raster format (TIFF) at 10, 20 and 100m resolution, of each of the EEA member and cooperating countries as well as the United Kingdom (former EEA39). This is a product derived from the EEA 39 Border Expert product, generalised to a scale of about 1:1 000 000 by applying a buffer of 250m and selecting the outline. Each country boundary has been projected to its respective national system(s), which are specified together with the EEA. The Border Expert product is based on the EU-Hydro Coastline Version 3 from EEA, the EEA coastline for analysis Version 2, the EBM GISCO Hybrid Layer from EEA, the EuroGeographics EuroBoundary Map Version 12, the “Water and Wetness High Resolution Layer 2015” from EEA and the JRC-Global Surface Water Occurrence layer. The production of this Border Product was coordinated by the European Environment Agency in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme.

Global Surface Water Explorer: Interaktive Anwendung als Wegweiser für europäische und internationale Politik

Die Europäische Kommission stellte am 12. Dezember 2016 die Anwendung „Global Surface Water Explorer“ offiziell vor. Es handelt sich um eine allgemein zugängliche Online-Anwendung mit interaktiven Karten, die helfen soll, europäische und internationale Strategien zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels und zur Wasserwirtschaft zu verbessern. Auf den von der Gemeinsamen Forschungsstelle der Kommission und Google Earth Engine entwickelten Karten können Veränderungen der Oberflächengewässer der Erde in den letzten 32 Jahren abgelesen werden. Auf den Karten lässt sich eine Zunahme von Oberflächengewässern in ganz Europa verzeichnen, die auf die Errichtung von Staudämmen und Veränderungen in der Bewirtschaftung und Speicherung dieses Wassers zurückgeht. Allerdings sind die Vorkommen in einigen Teilen Asiens erheblich zurückgegangen. Über 70 % der Nettoverluste sind in Kasachstan, Usbekistan, Iran, Afghanistan und Irak zu verzeichnen. Weltweit sind fast 90 000 km² ganz verschwunden und über 72 000 km² sind nur für einige Monate im Jahr vorhanden. Die Karten sind für alle Nutzer kostenlos über die Google Earth Engine-Plattform zugänglich. Dieses Projekt stellt auch einen Beitrag zum Copernicus Global Land Service dar, dem weltweiten Landüberwachungsdienst des Copernicus-Programms, das einen kostenlosen und freien Zugang zum gesamten Datensatz bietet. Die Copernicus-Satelliten Sentinel-1 und Sentinel-2 werden zudem zusätzliche Radar- und optische Satellitenbilder aufnehmen, durch die die Detailtreue und Genauigkeit der in dem Global Surface Water Explorer enthaltenen Informationen zukünftig weiter verbessert werden können.

CORINE Land Cover (CLC)

Landbedeckung und –nutzung sind entscheidende Indikatoren für Umweltbelastungen durch menschliches Handeln. Das europaweite Projekt CORINE Land Cover (CLC) hat die Bereitstellung von einheitlichen und damit vergleichbaren Daten der Landbedeckungs- und Landnutzungsinformationen zum Ziel. Mit Beobachtungen aus dem Weltall (Satellitenfernerkundung) werden erfolgreich digitale Geoinformationen abgeleitet. CORINE steht dabei für das Projekt „Coordination of Information on the Environment“ der Europäischen Union. Die Erfassung von CLC wurde erstmals in den 1990er Jahren europaweit durchgeführt. Seit der Ersterfassung wird in 44 Landbedeckungs- und Landnutzungsklassen unterschieden, von denen 37 Klassen – wie z.B. Siedlungsflächen, landwirtschaftlich genutzte Flächen, Wald, Feuchtgebiete und Wasserflächen – in Deutschland relevant sind. Der Dienst bietet umfassende und umfangreiche Informationen zur Landbedeckung und –nutzung in Europa stellt Datensätze für die Jahre 1990, 2000, 2006, 2012 und 2018 zur Verfügung zeigt Veränderungen der Landbedeckung und -nutzung seit dem Referenzjahr 1990 auf Zielgruppe Der Dienst richtet sich insbesondere an interessierte Bürgerinnen und Bürger sowie Wissenschaft und Forschung. Wissenschaftlicher Hintergrund Die für den europäischen Maßstab ausreichende MKE von 25 ha ist für eine Vielzahl von nationalen Fachfragen zu ungenau. Um das Nutzungspotential von CLC für nationale Anwendungen zu erhöhen, haben sich das Umweltbundesamt und das Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (BKG) darauf verständigt, zukünftig hochauflösende Daten des Landbedeckungsmodells für Deutschland (LBM-DE) für die Ableitung eines hochauflösenden CLC zu verwenden. Wichtigste Grundlage des LBM-DE ist das ATKIS Basis-DLM der deutschen Landesvermessung. Die aktuellste europaweite Erfassung der Landbedeckung und Landnutzung ist für das Bezugsjahr 2018 erfolgt. Die CLC-Daten im europäischen Maßstab (25 ha MKE) werden durch das Umweltbundesamt und die Europäische Umweltagentur bereitgestellt. Das hochaufgelöste CLC / LBM-DE (1 ha MKE) kann als Lizenzprodukt vom BKG für die Bezugsjahre 2012, 2015 und 2018 bezogen werden. Die CLC-Datensätze 2012, 2015 und 2018 stehen erstmalig mit 5 ha MKE nach Open Data Standards frei zur Verfügung. COPERNICUS Landdienst bietet geographische Informationen zu Landbedeckung und Landnutzung durch Satellitenerfassung.

Evolution of Copernicus Land Services based on Sentinel data (ECoLaSS)

Das Projekt "Evolution of Copernicus Land Services based on Sentinel data (ECoLaSS)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von GAF AG durchgeführt. The Copernicus programme, coordinated and managed by the European Commission, delivers environmental information (largely based on Earth Observation satellite data) in the form of Copernicus Services, addressing six thematic areas: Land, Marine, Atmosphere, Climate Change, Emergency Management and Security. The new Sentinel satellites, recently extended through the successful launch of Sentinel-3, will deliver an unprecedented volume of EO data in high spatial, radiometric and temporal resolution, providing a huge potential for monitoring applications within the Land Monitoring Service - at continental and global scale. The synergistic use of Sentinel-1/2/3 opens up the possibility for new applications, such as the use of time series in the area of Land Monitoring. The ECoLaSS project (Evolution of Copernicus Land Services based on Sentinel data) aims to develop methods and algorithms for pre-operational prototypes improving and developing future specific Copernicus Land services. These prototypes, representing new or improved Copernicus Land Cover and Land Use products, will be demonstrated by means of test/demonstrations sites distributed over Europe and Africa, representing multiple bio-geographic regions and biomes. Prototypes will be designed with high spatial and thematic accuracy, in a timely manner for a pan-European operational Roll-out with the potential for global applications. ECoLaSS will promote the innovation potential of new land monitoring services and applications and might thus contribute to a growing 'Copernicus Economy' by boosting (new) Copernicus CORE Land Services and value-added applications (Downstream Services). It is expected, that such new services will bring new opportunities with a wide range of dedicated applications to the market from 2020 onwards and thus significantly contribute to a positive evolution of the Copernicus Land services.
