South African Land Cover 2014 Class H Viticulture Resampled to a 1km Grid

The 2013-14 South African National land cover dataset produced by (© GEOTERRAIMAGE - 2014) as a commercial data product was generated from digital, multi-seasonal Landsat 8 multispectral imagery, acquired between April 2013 and March 2014. In excess of 600 Landsat images were used to generate the land cover information, based on an average of 8 different seasonal image acquisition dates, within each of the 76 x image frames required to cover South Africa. The land cover dataset, which covers the whole of South Africa, is presented in a map-corrected, raster format, based on 30x30m cells equivalent to the image resolution of the source Landsat 8 multi-spectral imagery. The dataset contains 72 x land cover / use information classes, covering a wide range of natural and man-made landscape characteristics. The original land cover dataset was processed in UTM (north) / WGS84 map projection format based on the Landsat 8 standard map projection format as provided by the USGS. Class 19–21 of the 2013-14 South African National land cover dataset was clustered to derive South African land cover 2014 Class H Viticulture for the current product and resampled to a 1000 x 1000m grid resolution Albers Equal Area map projection +proj=aea +lat_1=-22 +lat_2=-38 +lat_0=-30 +lon_0=25 +x_0=1400000 +y_0=1300000 +datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs
