#Clc viewer series
The 2012 version of CLC was the first one embedding the CLC time series in the Copernicus programme, thus ensuring sustainable funding for the future. In a few countries semi-automatic solutions are applied, using national in-situ data, satellite image processing, GIS integration and generalisation. CLC is produced by the majority of countries by visual interpretation of high resolution satellite imagery. The Eionet network National Reference Centres Land Cover (NRC/LC) is producing the national CLC databases, which are coordinated and integrated by EEA.
If you are interested in CLC-Changes between two neighbour surveys always use the CLC-Change layer. Due to differences in MMUs the difference between two status layers will not equal to the corresponding CLC-Changes layer. Different MMUs mean that the change layer has higher resolution than the status layer. CLC uses a Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) of 25 hectares (ha) for areal phenomena and a minimum width of 100 m for linear phenomena. The time series are complemented by change layers, which highlight changes in land cover with an MMU of 5 ha.
The CORINE Land Cover (CLC) inventory was initiated in 1985 (reference year 1990). Updates have been produced in 2000, 2006, 2012, and 2018. It consists of an inventory of land cover in 44 classes. Check out our new dashboard and see how CORINE Land Cover data can help you to understand the changes in the land cover around you.
