In response to this need, the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing (CCRS) has generated a 30 m land cover map of Canada for the base year 2010, as the first of a planned series of maps to be updated every five years, or more frequently. This land cover dataset is also the Canadian contribution to the 30 m spatial resolution 2010 Land Cover Map of North America, which is produced by Mexican, American and Canadian government institutions under a collaboration called the North American Land Change Monitoring System (NALCMS). This land cover dataset for Canada is produced using observation from Thematic Mapper (TM) and Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) Landsat sensors. An accuracy assessment based on 2811 randomly distributed samples shows that land cover data produced with this new approach has achieved 76.60% accuracy with no marked spatial disparities.", "summary": "This land cover dataset is the Canadian contribution to the 30 m spatial resolution 2010 Land Cover Map of North America.", "title": "2010 Land Cover of Canada", "tags": [ "Mid-latidude", "Western Hemisphere", "Northern Hemisphere", "North America", "Canada", "Land Cover", "Remote Sensing", "Landsat", "Reflectance" ], "type": "Map Service", "typeKeywords": [ "Data", "Service", "Map Service", "ArcGIS Server" ], "thumbnail": "", "url": "https://nronk1awvasp037.nrn.nrcan.gc.ca:6443/arcgis/services/FGP/LandCover_EN/MapServer", "extent": [ [ -177.292864055844, 34.3014582285065 ], [ -9.97734610619656, 84.4565213236687 ] ], "spatialReference": "NAD_1983_Canada_Atlas_Lambert", "accessInformation": "Government of Canada; Natural Resources Canada; Canada Centre for Remote Sensing", "licenseInfo": "" }
