The status products are available for the 2012, 2015 and 2018 reference years: 1. Tree cover density providing level of tree cover density in a range from 0-100%; 2. Dominant leaf type providing information on the dominant leaf type: broadleaved or coniferous; 3. A Forest type product. The forest type product allows to get as close as possible to the FAO forest definition. In its original (20m) resolution it consists of two products: 1) a dominant leaf type product that has a MMU of 0.5 ha, as well as a 10% tree cover density threshold applied, and 2) a support layer that maps, based on the dominant leaf type product, trees under agricultural use and in urban context (derived from CLC and high resolution imperviousness 2009 data). For the final 100m product trees under agricultural use and urban context from the support layer are removed. The high resolution forest change products comprise a simple tree cover density change product for 2012-2015 (% increase or decrease of real tree cover density changes). The production of the high resolution forest layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme.Commission Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services.2018 3.6.1CopernicusHigh resolution layerTree cover densityLand coverEnvironmentImagery base maps earth coverEEA39Forest managementLand useLandscape alterationEuropeanBiodiversityForests and forestryLand use <http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84> Polygon((-31.27 27.64, -31.27 66.57, -13.42 66.57, -13.42 27.64, -31.27 27.64)) <http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84> Polygon((-10.62 34.56, -10.62 71.19, 44.82 71.19, 44.82 34.56, -10.62 34.56)) Copernicus Land Monitoring Service website (requires authentication)https://land.copernicus.eu/en/products/high-resolution-layer-forests-and-tree-cover/tree-cover-density-2012#downloadProduct Information and Techinical Documentationhttps://land.copernicus.eu/en/products/high-resolution-layer-forests-and-tree-coverArcGIS REST Services Directoryhttps://image.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/GioLandPublic/HRL_Tree_Cover_Density_2012/MapServerEEA geospatial data cataloguehttps://sdi.eea.europa.eu/catalogue/copernicus/api/records/91687ef2-f907-4f84-81f7-c9c81980c306?language=allCopernicus Land Monitoring ServiceEnglish
