UKCEH’s automated land cover classification algorithms generated the 10m classified pixels, from which all remaining products were generated. Training data for classification were automatically selected from stable land covers over the interval of 2017 to 2019. A Random Forest classifier used these to classify four composite images representing per season median surface reflectance. Seasonal images were integrated with context layers (e.g., height, aspect, slope, coastal proximity, urban proximity and so forth) to reduce confusion among classes with similar spectra.
Land cover was validated by organising the pixel classification into a land parcel framework (the LCM2020 Classified Land Parcels product). The classified land parcels were compared to known land cover producing confusion matrix to determine overall and per class accuracy. Details are available from the product documentation.
This dataset represents LCM2020 25m rasterised land parcels. It was produced by rasterising three properties of the LCM2020 Classified Land Parcels GB product (_mode, _conf and _purity).
