CORINE Land Cover change (2006-2012) database of the Netherlands. Monitoring of CLC land cover changes between 2006 and 2012 with a minimum mapping unit (MMU) of 5ha. The CORINE Land Cover (CLC) initiative has a longstanding tradition of providing land cover and land use information over Europe at regular time intervals. Over the past few decades, it gradually became one of the flagship european geospatial datasets. For the 2012 release, the global Monitoring for Environment and Security Programme (GMES, now called Copernicus), established in partnership with the European Commission and the European Space Agency (ESA), provides a unique opportunity to extend the CLC products with a new series of High Resolution (HR) layers, adressing 5 land cover characteristics that will provide valuable complementary information to the CLC datasets (i.e. imperviousness, forest areas, permanent grassland, wetlands and water bodies). The European Environment Agency (EEA) is responsible for the coordination of the pan-European component of GMES Initial Operations (GIO) Land Monitoring 2011-2013 in the framework of regulation (EU) No 911/2010 – Pan-EU Component. As the EEA highly values the cooperation with EIONET members and cooperating countries they were invited to participate in the production of CLC products and verification and enhancement of the HR layers.

CORINE Land Cover 2006 database of the Netherlands (revised). Land cover of the Netherlands in 2006 based on satellite imagery in combination with ancillary data with reference date around 2006. Land cover mapping according to the CLC class descriptions with minimum mapping unit 25ha.

Het bestand bevat data betreffende het landgebruik in Nederland volgens de Europese CORINE Land Cover legenda. De data zijn met name gebaseerd op de visuele interpretatie van Landsat5-TM beelden uit 1986 - 1988. Het bestand is een geometrisch en thematisch gecorrigeerde versie van het CORINE86 bestand. Eenheden kleiner dan 25ha komen niet voor. Het Nederlandse bestand wordt geintegreerd met andere nationale bestanden om voor de gehele EU een standaard landgebruiksbestand te hebben. Het bestand kan o.a. gebruikt worden voor het uitvoeren en monitoren van Europees milieubeleid. Monitoring Land Cover Changes between 1986 and 2000. Alterra, the Netherlands 2.

CORINE Land Cover 2006 database of the Netherlands. An increasing need for factual and quantitative information on the state of the environment of DG Environment, DG Agriculture and other users initiated a proposal of the EEA to collaborate with the European Space Agency (ESA) and the European Commission (EC) on the implementation of a fast track service on land monitoring. The project focused on timely, quality assured data, in particular in land cover and land use related issues for 2006-2008. The CLC2006 project is part of the GMES Fast Track Service Precursor (FTSP) Land Monitoring. In CLC2006 38 countries with total area of 5.8 Mkm2 are participating (32 EEA member states and 6 collaborating countries).
