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.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Attribution of the pixels is based on a combination of the classification algorithm and informed decision-making by the analysts. Accuracy of the classification has not been determined.
Logical_Consistency_Report: Not applicable
Completeness_Report: Not applicable
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Horizontal accuracy is within 0.5 pixels of the true location. Therefore, the accuracy is +/- 15 meters.
