Generating Annual 4-m Land Cover Products over 28 Metropolises in China during 2000-2020

<p>A 4-m fine-grained land cover products over the 28 provincial capital cities in China (mainly in temperate&nbsp;monsoon climate and subtropical monsoon climate zone, and categorized into 7 classes, i.e.,&nbsp;cropland, forest, grass, shrub, water, impervious surface, and bare land) is generated through&nbsp;the proposed model; A 4-m annual land cover products during 2000-2020 in Wuhan, China&nbsp;is generated through the proposed model.</p> <p>To validate the effectiveness of the derived products, three verification approaches are employed. 1) evaluation by the consistency with the contemporary products including 10-m Esri Land Cover,&nbsp;10-m FROMGLC10, and 30-m GlobeLand30 ; 2) evaluation by the publicly certified 4-m&nbsp;annotation dataset GID; 3) evaluation by the third-party-created annotation samples. The&nbsp;validation results can be viewed in the manuscript, and the reproduction executation details can be viewed at Readme.txt.</p> <p>The products is in .tif format, and validaiton region&nbsp;is in ENVI/hdr format. Users need to&nbsp;install ENVI software or Arcgis to read the product.</p> <p>&quot;open_source_DETNet_code_and_simple_demo.rar&quot; is open source code and the corresponding intruction.</p>
