Nippes - Haïti - 2020, Land Cover Map at very high spatial resolution

The maps were produced with the Moringa chain developed by CIRAD (UMR TETIS). They are distributed in ESRI SHAPE vector format. The Moringa chain produces land cover maps by classifying satellite images. It implies a time series of Sentinel 2 images, a Digital Terrain Model, a very high spatial resolution satellite image (THRS), and a field reference database. We produced maps with VHSR images acquired, on one hand, by Spot 6/7 (1.5m/pixel) and, on the other hand, by Pléiades (50cm/pixel), to study the respective contribution of these data in this type of landscape. This sheet therefore contains maps produced with Spot 6/7 and Pleiades at each different precision level of the nomenclature: The most detailed level, labelled Code2, is composed of 12 classes. The basic level, labelled Code1, is composed of 8 classes. The level labelled Code0 is a proposal of slightly different distribution of classes at the same level than Code1. It is composed of 7 classes. In all the maps, we added the roads from the Open Street Map database. A detailed report of the techniques used for the production of these maps is available (See below "Related Publication"). This report contains in particular the validation statistics of the maps, which quantify the global and by class validity of the results.
