Land cover flows 2000-2006 - version 1.0, Mar. 2020

The raster dataset describes land cover flows between 2000-2006. Land Cover Flows summarize and interpret the 44x43=1892 possible one-to-one changes between the 44 CORINE land cover classes. The changes are grouped to so called flows of land cover and are classified according to major land use processes. The nomenclature of flows is organized on 3 hierarchical levels. See lineage on the nomenclature. The classification of land cover flows results from the feasibility studies and subsequent revisions after discussion with experts in agri-environment and forestry. Basically, the classification of land cover flows distinguishes change between broad land cover classes and changes internal to these classes. Analysis of land cover flows supplies a rapid vision of land use change processes taking place and they shed light on the drivers of various land use change processes such as e.g. urbanization. The geographic coverage of the dataset is EEA39 region.本栅格数据集（raster dataset）描述了2000年至2006年间的土地覆盖流向（land cover flows）。土地覆盖流向汇总并阐释了44个CORINE土地覆盖类别（CORINE land cover classes）之间共计44×43=1892种可能的一对一土地覆盖变化类型。这些变化被归类为所谓的土地覆盖流向，并依据主要土地利用过程（land use processes）进行分类。该流向的命名体系分为三个层级，详见命名体系的谱系说明。 土地覆盖流向的分类体系源自经与农业环境及林业领域专家研讨后开展的可行性研究及后续修订工作。本质而言，该分类体系区分了宽泛土地覆盖类别之间的变化，以及这些类别内部的变化。对土地覆盖流向的分析能够快速呈现当前发生的土地利用变化过程，并可为城市化等各类土地利用变化过程的驱动因素提供阐释依据。 本数据集的地理覆盖范围为EEA39区域（EEA39 region）。
