Collect field data on land cover classification using the nomenclature of GlobeLand30 (GLC30). GLC30 is a global land cover raster map produced by the National Geomatics Center of China (NGCC) for years 2000 and 2010 with 30 meter resolution. The collected data will be used to validate the GLC30 dataset. When collecting a land cover observation, in addition to enabling their GPS, users are required to indicate the land cover class according to the GLC30 nomenclature and their degree of certainty; to take four photos in the north, east, south and west directions; and optionally to add a comment. Guidelines are given in the application. The collected data can be visualized as clusters, aggregated based on their land cover class. The details of each single point can be queried. The application is available in English, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese and French. Data can be collected online and offline.
