CLC-CH Corine Land Cover Update

Since the mid 80-ies digital satellite images are uniformly mapped and interpreted within the European CORINE program (mapping landcover/landuse). Becoming a member of the European Environment Agency (EEA) this dataset is also done for Switzerland. The derivation of the CLC maps 2000 /2006 was supported and evaluated as well as preparing the new update map for 2012.
