7 Using seasonal attributes In 1990 the IGBP identified major limitations to existing global land cover data sets The first global 1 km resolution AVHRR data set was begun in April 1992 The first 1 km land cover map, IGBP s DISCover, was released in 1997 GLC 2000 began in 1999 and was released in 2005 MODLAND began in 2001 the 500 m product was released in December 2008 GLOBCOVER 300 m began in 2004, V1.0 was released in 2007

21 Setting a deforestation rate benchmark Future emissions will need to be compared to a national reference emission scenario Such a scenario will be based on historical deforestation and degradation rates (at country level)
22 Monitoring gross changes in forest area Global observations Hot spot/large deforestation detection MODIS-type sensors Deforestation (~10-20 ha) (intra-) annual Hot spots of forest change National/local observations Wall-to-wall mapping Sampling approach Landsat-type sensors Deforestation (~0.5-1 ha) inter- annual (5 10 years) Regionally-tuned forest degradation mapping Change in forest area and density

34 Commitment and progress
35 Commitment and progress GCOS Actions 22.Establish international standards and specifications for the production of land-cover characterization maps 23.Produce reliable accepted methods for land-cover map accuracy assessment 24.Commit to continuous 10-30m resolution optical satellite systems with data acquisition strategies at least equivalent to the Landsat 7 mission for land cover 25.Develop an in situ reference network and apply CEOS WGCV validation protocols for land cover 26.Generate annual products documenting global landcover characteristics at resolutions between 250m and 1km, according to internationally-agreed standards and accompanied by statistical descriptions of the maps accuracy 27.Generate maps documenting global land cover at resolutions between 10m and 30m every 5 years, according to internationally-agreed standards and accompanied by statistical descriptions of the maps accuracy
