This layer displays a global map of land use/land cover (LULC) derived from ESA Sentinel-2 imagery at 10m resolution. Each year is generated with Impact Observatory’s deep learning AI land classification model, trained using billions of human-labeled image pixels from the National Geographic Society. The global maps are produced by applying this model to the Sentinel-2 Level-2A image collection on Microsoft’s Planetary Computer, processing over 400,000 Earth observations per year.
The algorithm generates LULC predictions for nine classes, described in detail below.
The year 2017 has a land cover class assigned for every pixel, but its class is based upon fewer images than the other years. The years 2018-2022 are based upon a more complete set of imagery. For this reason, the year 2017 may have less accurate land cover class assignments than the years 2018-2022.
Earth Engine Snippet if dataset already in GEE
for example
var asset_name = ee.ImageCollection("path to your collection")
Sample Code: Add a sample code maybe just adding your datasets in the code editor
