Land use and land cover (LULC) classification of the CAP LTER study area (central Arizona, USA) using Landsat imagery: 2015 and 2020

## overview The project extends the long-term, LULC datasets to facilitate environmental change monitoring and social-ecological studies regarding urban sprawl and dynamics, urban heat islands, and outdoor water consumption, among others. Six land-use/land-cover (LULC) maps at 30 m resolution were previously created from 1985 to 2010 at five-year intervals (Zhang and Li 2017). This project updates that suite with maps for 2015 and 2020. As with the prior set, systematic object-based classification was utilized to ensure map consistency and direct comparison capability over time. The maps comprise 11 land-use/land-cover classes with an overall accuracy of 89.1% for 2015 and 89.6% for 2020. ## literature cited - Zhang, Y. and X. Li. 2017.

TimeSpec4LULC: A Smart-Global Dataset of Multi-Spectral Time Series of MODIS Terra-Aqua from 2000 to 2021 for Training Machine Learning models to perform LULC Mapping

<p>TimeSpec4LULC is a smart open-source global dataset of multi-spectral time series for 29 Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) classes ready to train machine learning models. It was built based on the seven spectral bands of the MODIS sensors at 500 m resolution from 2000 to 2021 (262 observations in each time series). Then, was annotated using spatial-temporal agreement across the 15 global LULC products available in Google Earth Engine (GEE).</p> <p>TimeSpec4LULC contains two datasets: the original dataset distributed over 6,076,531 pixels, and the balanced subset of the original dataset distributed over&nbsp;29000 pixels.</p> <p>The original dataset contains 30 folders, namely &quot;Metadata&quot;, and 29 folders corresponding to the 29 LULC classes. The folder &quot;Metadata&quot;&nbsp;holds 29 different CSV files describing the metadata of the 29 LULC classes.&nbsp;The remaining 29 folders&nbsp;contain the time series data for the 29 LULC classes. Each folder&nbsp;holds 262 CSV files corresponding to the 262 months.&nbsp;Inside each CSV file, we provide the seven values of the spectral bands as well as the coordinates for all the LULC class-related pixels.</p> <p>The balanced subset of the original dataset contains the metadata and the time series data for 1000 pixels per class representative of the globe. It holds&nbsp;29 different JSON files following the names of the 29 LULC classes.</p> <p>The features of the dataset&nbsp;are:</p> <p>-&nbsp;&quot;.geo&quot;:&nbsp;the geometry and coordinates (longitude and latitude) of the pixel center.</p> <p>-&nbsp;&quot;ADM0_Code&quot;: the&nbsp;GAUL country code.</p> <p>-&nbsp;&quot;ADM1_Code&quot;: the GAUL first-level administrative unit code.</p> <p>-&nbsp;GHM_Index&quot;: the average of the global human modification index.</p> <p>-&nbsp;&quot;Products_Agreement_Percentage&quot;: the agreement percentage over the 15 global LULC products available in GEE.</p> <p>-&nbsp;&quot;Temporal_Availability_Percentage&quot;:&nbsp;the percentage of non-missing values in each band.</p> <p>- &quot;Pixel_TS&quot;: the time series values of the seven spectral bands.</p>

Crowd and community sourcing to update authoritative LULC data in urban areas

<p>The French National Mapping Agency (Institut National de l&#39;Information G&eacute;ographique et Foresti&egrave;re - IGN) is responsible for producing and maintaining the spatial data sets for all of France. At the same time, they must satisfy the needs of different stakeholders who are responsible for decisions at multiple levels from local to national. IGN produces many different maps including detailed road networks and land cover/land use maps over time. The information contained in these maps is crucial for many of the decisions made about urban planning, resource management and landscape restoration as well as other environmental issues in France. Recently, IGN has started the process of creating a high-resolution land use land cover (LULC) maps, aimed at developing smart and accurate monitoring services of LULC over time. To help update and validate the French LULC database, citizens and interested stakeholders can contribute using the <a href="https://paysages.ign.fr/">Paysages</a> mobile and web applications. This approach presents an opportunity to evaluate the integration of citizens in the IGN process of updating and validating LULC data.</p> <p><strong>Dataset 1: Change detection validation 2019</strong></p> <p>This dataset contains web-based validations of changes detected by time series (2016 &ndash; 2019) analysis of Sentinel-2 satellite imagery. &nbsp;Validation was conducted using two high resolution orthophotos from respectively 2016 and 2019 as reference data. Two tools have been used: <a href="https://paysages.ign.fr/">Paysages</a> web application and <a href="https://laco-wiki.net/">LACO-Wiki</a>. Both tools used the same validation design: blind validation and the same options. For each detected change, contributors are asked to validate if there is a change and if it is the case then to choose a LU or LC class from a pre-defined list of classes.</p> <p>The dataset has the following characteristics:</p> <ul> <li>Time period of the change detection: 2016-2019.</li> <li>Time period of data collection: February 2019-December 2019</li> <li>Total number of contributors: 105</li> <li>Number of validated changes: 1048; each change was validated by between 1 to 6 contributors.</li> <li>Region of interest: Toulouse and surrounding areas</li> </ul> <p>Associated files: 1- Change validation locations.png, 1-Change validation 2019 &ndash; Attributes.csv, 1-Change validation 2019.csv, 1-Change validation 2019.geoJSON</p> <p>This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International.

Land use and land cover (LULC) classification of the CAP LTER study area using 2010 Landsat imagery

The land use and land cover (LULC) mapping generated from the 30 meter resolution Landsat TM5 is prepared for CAP LTER analyses. The series of products includes three levels LULC classifications, from coarser land-cover types to finer, hybrid LULC types, arranged in three thematic maps with contrasting numbers of LULC categories: (1) 12, (2) 15, and (3) 21. The percent of vegetation cover (vegetation fraction) in the residential area is provided. The image has a resampled spatial resolution of 15 meters due to the image classification procedure.
