The service, starting from a multi-class shapefile containing the land cover classes in the scene, expressed in FAO-LCCS taxonomy, aims to generate a series of shapefiles, one for each different class. A numeric code is also associated to each class. The algorithm uses as input training and test data used to obtain the multi-class land cover mapping of the scene by a supervised, pixel-based classification. Within the Ailanthus workflow of the Internal Joint Intiative, it represents the step 1 and 2 of the first stage (where a multi-class problem is considered).
