GLC 2000 Land Cover Database of North America

The GLC 2000 Land Cover Database of North America Workshop focused on accuracy assessment and confidence building in land cover classification. This workshop analyzed various land cover maps, including GLC 2000-IGBP, GLC 2000-UMD, and GLC 2000-UMB, to evaluate the depiction of forest areas in North America. The outputs of the workshop included a comprehensive land cover database of North America in 2000.
