Copernicus Land - corine land cover 2012 PL - version 1, Mar. 2014

copern_v_2180_100_k_clc12-pl_2011-2012_rev01

The Polish national project related to the Copernicus (former GMES) Initial Operations (GIO) Land Monitoring (Pan-European component) comprises the verification and enhancement of the 5 HR layers, revision of CORINE Land Cover CLC2006, production of CLC-Change2006-2012, and CLC2012 datasets, as well as dissemination activities. The national project was carried out by the Institute of Geodesy and Cartography, which acts as National Reference Center (NRC) in Poland, nominated by the Chief Inspectorate of Environmental Protection in Poland as NFP. The national project was based on the ‘Terms of reference and template for GMES Initial Operations (GIO) Land Monitoring 2011–2013 in the framework of regulation (EU) No 911/2010-Pan-EU component’, template of the ‘Grant agreement on GMES Initial Operations (GIO) Land Monitoring 2011–2013 in the framework of regulation (EU) No 911/2010-Pan-EU component’, ‘CLC2012 Addendum to CLC2006 Technical Guidelines’ and ‘CLC2006 Technical Guidelines’, as well as ‘Guidelines for verification of HR layers produced under GMES initial operations (GIO) Land monitoring 2011– 2013’ and ‘Guidelines for enhancement of HR layers produced under GMES Initial Operations (GIO) Land monitoring 2011–2013’ provided by the European Environment Agency (EEA).

CLC2012 Addendum to CLC2006 Technical Guidelines

See the referenced specification

The CORINE Land Cover database for Poland has been updated for the reference year 2012. Main objective of the project was to detect, identify and map all land cover changes above 5 ha, which occurred between 2006 and 2012. Satellite images acquired between March 2011 and October 2012 served as basis for image interpretation. National orthophotos and database of topographic objects were also used to support the interpretation process. The CLC2012 database was generated according to the instructions of ETC-LUSI Technical Team and with the help of given macro program. Steps to create the CLC2012 were as follows: - Union of CLC2006revised and CLC-Changes2006-2012 databases using Esri ArcToolbox; - Quality control of all data (i.e. attributes, size, width of polygons, codes) using ArcGIS software and ArcInfo Workstation; - Control of topological correctness (i.e. no holes, no overlaps, no multi-part polygons, and no dissolve errors); - CLC-Changes2006-2012 polygons ’code2006’ was replaced by ‘code2012’; - Neighbours with similar code were unified; - Small (less than 25 ha) polygons were generalized according to a priority table created by the ETC-LUSI Technical Team in supporting macro program; - On line quality control using CLC QC Tool.
