Copernicus Global Land Service - Land Cover 100m
Introduction
The CGLS-LC100 is a dynamic land cover map at 100m resolution and a part of the product portfolio for the Copernicus Global Land Service (CGLS) [1]. It has the target to deliver a yearly, global land cover map which primarily will be based based on PROBA-V – and later to be merged and replaced by Sentinel-2 satellite sources. Currently (2018), a demonstration map covering the continent of Africa has been released. This map was derived from PROBA-V time series combined with local land cover training datasets as well as ancillary datasets.
Spatial and Temporal Coverage
Coverage for the demonstration dataset is the continent of Africa for the year of 2015.
Later the coverage will become global and be at a yearly release schedule. It is based on a 100 m x 100 m grid.
Legends
The legend is based on the UN LCCS (United Nations Land Cover Classification System). For the CGLS-LS100 main land cover product, it holds 18 classes, see the sample map image for Tenerife above.

Schedule / Dataset Roadmap
Demonstration dataset for Africa was released in ultimo 2017. In 2018, adaption of the retrieval methodology to Sentinel-2 data is planned and release of the dataset with global coverage.
