Corine Land Cover
Introduction
Corine land cover products (2006 and 2012) are produced by visual interpretation of high resolution satellite imagery. It consists of an inventory of land cover in 44 classes which has been mapped in to roughness lengths for use in WindPRO. It is produced and delivered by the European Environment Agency (EEA). http://www.eea.europa.eu/
Coverage
This dataset covers most parts of Europe. It has a spatial resolution of 100 m.
Legends
The Corine 2006 and 2012 datasets has 44 different categories that EMD has mapped in to a suggested roughness length, z0.
