- Title: Detailed LULC Classification (P9R60) – 12 September 2002
- Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: remote-sensing image
- Description:
-
- Abstract:
- This data set contains seventeen land use/land cover (LULC) classes for the Path 9/Row 60 Landsat TM scene, which contains entire study area of the CPC Ecuador Projects, in the northern Oriente of Ecuador.
- Purpose:
- Population-environment interaction research requires accurate LULC data for a variety of time periods. This data is used to determine the spatial structure and pattern of land use throughout the study area.
