Description

The Land Use/Cover Area frame Survey (LUCAS) in the European Union (EU) was set up to provide statistical information. It represents a triennial in-situ landcover and land-use data-collection exercise that extends over the whole of the EU's territory. LUCAS collects information on land cover and land use, agro-environmental variables, soil, and grassland. The surveys also provide spatial information to analyse the mutual influences between agriculture, environment, and countryside, such as irrigation and land management.

The dataset presented here is the LUCAS Copernicus module. It was set set up in 2018 to provide Earth Observation relevant data for the first time in LUCAS history. The dataset consist of 63,287 polygons of various sizes and shapes with consistent land cover, making the ideal tool for polygon-based extraction from remote sensing data. The harmonization process has improved the land cover legend to LUCAS Level-3, and has joined, wherever deemed appropriate, the attribute data from the 2018 LUCAS survey, augmenting the possibilities for data extraction to the fullest potential of the LUCAS collected variables.

The text "C1 (Instructions)" in the table schema descriptions refers to this document.

Visualize as a FeatureView

A FeatureView is a view-only, accelerated representation of a FeatureCollection. For more details, visit the FeatureView documentation.

Code Editor (JavaScript)

var fvLayer = ui.Map.FeatureViewLayer('JRC/LUCAS_HARMO/COPERNICUS_POLYGONS/V1/2018_FeatureView');

var visParams = {
  pointSize: 20,
  color: 'red',
