| Title: | Main Title: Preliminary land use classification of the Rur Catchment 2015 |
| Description: | Abstract: This data set contains the preliminary land use classification of 2015 for the study area of the CRC/Transregio 32: "Patterns in Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Systems: monitoring, modelling and data assimilation", which corresponds to the catchment of the river Rur. The study area is mainly situated in the western part of North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and parts of the Netherlands and Belgium. The classification is provided in GeoTIFF and in ASCII format. Spatial resolution: 15 m; Projection: WGS84, UTM Zone 32N. |

| Lineage: | TThis data set contains the preliminary land use classification of 2015 for the study area of the CRC/Transregio 32: "Patterns in Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Systems: monitoring, modelling and data assimilation", which corresponds to the catchment of the river Rur. The study area is mainly situated in the western part of North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and parts of the Netherlands and Belgium, covering an area of approximately 2365 square kilometers. The land use classification is derived from supervised, multi temporal remote sensing data analysis using Landsat 8 and RapidEye. For the preliminary land use analysis datasets of the following acquisition dates were employed: April 15 (RapidEye), April 23 (RapidEye), May 15 (Landsat 8), and June 04 (RapidEye). Full coverage of the study area was not available for all acquisition dates and thus the crop classification is for now partly affected in its depth of information. Since later acquisition dates are not exploited for this land use classification, no distinction of summer crops (Maize, Sugar Beet, Potatoes) is available for now. For the preliminary assessment of the crop classification accuracy refer to the error matrix on the last page of the documentation file. To enhance the information content of the land use data product, the Multi-Data Approach (MDA) was applied to combine the remote sensing derived land use information with additional data sets like the ‘Authorative Topographic-Cartographic Information System’ (ATKIS Basic-DLM, AAA schema) and ‘Physical Block’ information. Furthermore, OpenStreetMap (OSM) data were integrated to update the information on the road network, settlement areas in the Netherlands where CorineLandCover data were outdated, and the course of the river Rur in the Netherlands. Thus, a more disaggregated land use was obtained, especially for the regions in Belgium and the Netherlands. Please note, that for this preliminary land use classification not all available additional data was exploited, so that there is no distinction of e.g. commercial or industrial land use. The methodology of the MDA is described in more detail in Waldhoff & Bareth (2008) and in Waldhoff et al. (2012). References: Waldhoff, G. & Bareth, G.
