Abstract
This dataset contains high resolution (HR) land cover (LC) maps of a subregion of Africa, produced by the ESA High Resolution Land Cover (HRLC) Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. This consists of the following products:
1) HRLC10: High Resolution Land Cover Maps at 10m spatial resolution for year 2019 (also referred to as static maps).
2) Associated uncertainty products.
They cover the geographic range (0.1°S – 18.1°N; 9.9°E – 43.3°E).
The data are provided as both GeoTIFF tiles following the Sentinel-2 MGRS tiling scheme and as a GeoTiff format mosaic. These maps are also referred to as static maps.
