| Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) 2 |
 |
GLCN and Africover are based upon the FAO/
UNEP
Land Cover Classification System (LCCS).
LCCS is the only
universally applicable classification system in operational
use at present. It enables a comparison of land cover classes regardless of
data source, economic sector or country. The LCCS method enhances the
standardization process and minimizes the problem of dealing with a very
large amount of pre-defined classes.
Classification Concepts and User Manual
The LCCS software manual provides information on the classification
concepts and the practical software use. The first part of the manual
fully describes the LCCS used definitions and the conceptual basis.
The second part of the manual deals with the LCCS operative use, from
installation to extensive explanation of the functioning mode of each
one of the program modules.
The LCCS manual is available in English, Spanish and Arabic..
Installation
The software is freely distributed by FAO (latest version is 2.4) through
a self-extracting executable file that produces the entire set of files
necessary to run the setup.
