CLMS - Pan-European

The production of pan-European data is coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA). CDSE provides pan-European datasets like: CORINE Land Cover datasets, High Resolution Layers and related pan-European products.  

Product details:


The CORINE Land Cover (CLC) inventory was initiated in 1985 (reference year 1990). It was updated in 2000, 2006, 2012, and 2018. Inventory of land cover in 44 classes is consisted within the CLC database. The Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) for status layer is 25 hectares (ha) and  width of 100 m for areal phenomena and for linear phenomena, respectively. The time series are complemented by change layers (changes between the newest and the previous status layer), which highlight changes in land cover with an MMU of 5 ha.

High Resolution Layers (HRL) provide information on specific land cover characteristics including status and changes. The HRLs complementary to the CLC datasets. The HRLs are produced from satellite imagery through a combination of automatic processing and interactive rule based classification.

The European Settlement Map (ESM) is a raster dataset which is mapping human settlements in Europe. Dataset was produced from  SPOT5 and SPOT6 satellite imagery. It has been produced with GHSL technology by the European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Institute for the Protection and Security of the Citizen, Global Security and Crisis Management Unit.
