Introduction • Land Cover Mapping is an going project in collaboration with FAO UN using the technique of Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) – an important component of FAO / GLCN approach to create a harmonized and extensive representation of land cover features
Key points • DATA USED • SPOT 5 meter pan- sharpened data • 2.5meter rescaled at 5 meter • Development of Working areas • Working areas of whole province developed with minimum overlap
Key points • Creation of Subsets within working areas Segmentation created separately on each subset
Segmentation • Re-projected into world Mercator (WGS-1984) before segmentation • Segmentation scale used 50 (± 15 depending upon the features on image), shape = 0.1, compactness= 0.9) polygons from outside the boundary were deleted

Quality assurance of Data • Quality Checking – Marking of Errors • Error Removing • Re – QC
Topology Check • Removal of Gaps • Removal of Overlaps
Topology Check • Data was first checked for gap errors • Correction of gap errors • Then, overlap topology was checked • Overlap errors were corrected in MadCat • Gap corrected layer was imported in segment layer • Polygon containing errors were exported to training areas • Then again move back to segment layer by using Topology over
Land Cover Mapping The possible areas of application would be Agriculture, Forestry, Environment, Irrigation, Disasters & Hazards Monitoring, Planning & Development, Oil & Gas Exploration, Mining, Wild Life and other emergent requirements.
