Corine Land Cover 2000 — Dataset

The Corine Land Cover (CLC) is an integral project of the CORINE Programme. The objective of the CLC is to provide information on land cover and changes over time. The information is comparable and homogeneous for all countries participating in the project (currently 31 countries including some of North Africa). The photo-interpretation from satellite images (Landsat 5 and 7) made the cost of the project sustainable. The geographical information system consists of 44 classes of land cover divided into 3 three levels (5 classes for the first level, 15 for the second level and 44 for the third). The first realisation was carried out since the 1980s and led to the realisation of the CLC 90.

科里内土地覆盖（Corine Land Cover，简称CLC）是科里内计划（CORINE Programme）的核心组成项目。其核心目标是提供土地覆盖类型及其时空变化的相关信息。参与该项目的所有国家（当前共计31个，涵盖部分北非国家）所提供的相关信息均具备可比性与同质性。通过对Landsat 5与Landsat 7卫星影像开展目视解译，该项目的成本得以实现可持续管控，保障了项目的长期稳定推进。该数据集配套的地理信息系统（Geographic Information System）包含44种土地覆盖类别，共分为三级分类体系：一级分类包含5个类别，二级分类包含15个类别，三级分类则涵盖全部44个类别。该数据集的首次编制工作始于20世纪80年代，最终产出了CLC 90版本。
