Cautions
This dataset inherits the accuracy and limitations of the original dataset (see ‘Copernicus Global Land Cover 2019’ metadata). Furthermore, land cover classes such as ‘Open forest, mixed’, ‘Shrubs and ‘Herbaceous vegetation’ include a variable percentage of cropped land that is not mappable, resulting in a slight overestimation of natural areas coverage.
