The Land Cover database provides information on land cover distribution. It has been created using the FAO / GLCN methodology and tools. The main data sources include satellite imagery from LANDSAT ETM sensor (composite band 432 , 2010-2011) and publicly available high resolution remote sensing imagery from Google Earth. The national legend was prepared using the Land Cover Classification System (LCCS).
