Creating LCZ TIF Map Greater than 200km x 200km #68

Hi,

I wanted to ask for any advice you have on creating an LCZ file for multiple cities. The current limitation of the LCZ generator is 200km by 200km. Is there any GIS software with a geoprocessor that allows for a larger spatial extent? Our required domain is large, around 1000km by 1000km,

There is an option to use a clipped global LCZ file, but several urban pixels are missing, so I would prefer the training area method if possible. Please advise.

Thanks, Amjad

Mhm, not that I am aware of...

What do you mean that several urban pixels are missing? Are they blank or misclassified?

I am not sure what the earthengine limit is for processing before it times out. We had issues in the past with that...

I can offer you to send me your TAs so I can try it locally (disabling the 2.5° limit). Send it to the lcz generator email. Multiple iteration may be hard though - but let's see first if it's even possible.
