GLC_FCS30: Global land-cover product with fine classification system at 30 m using time-series Landsat imagery

<p>A &nbsp;novel global 30-m land-cover product with a fine classification system for the year 2015 (GLC_FCS30-2015). The product&nbsp;was produced by combining time-series of Landsat imagery and high-quality training data from the GSPECLib (Global Spatial Temporal Spectra Library) on the Google Earth Engine computing platform. First, the global training data from the GSPECLib were developed by applying a series of rigorous filters to the MCD43A4 NBAR and CCI_LC land-cover products. Secondly, a local adaptive random forest model was built for each 5&deg;&times;5&deg; geographical tile by using the multi-temporal Landsat spectral and textures features of the corresponding training data, and the GLC_FCS30-2015 land-cover product containing 30 land-cover types was generated for each tile.</p>
