This is the metadata covering the Water Layer (WL) product. The WL is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Water Snow & Ice portfolio (HR-WSI), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.. The WL is generated for the 2021 reference year. It is a a multi-annual product based on the information covering the period 2016-2021. In the context of the HR-WSI, the water and dry frequency masks are derived from intermediate outputs of the WCD workflow, the monthly surface water masks in combination with the WIC S2 NRT product. It provides detailed information about the presence and condition of water surfaces across Europe. It is also generated in different spatial resolutions (10m and 100m) and projections (LAEA & WGS84/UTM). The High Resolution Water Layer portfolio consists of the WL, the Water Presence Index (WPI), the Water confidence layer (WCL) and the Rolling archive (WLRA). There are 5 major classes like: - Dry (always or mostly dry with minor instances of wet) - permanent water (always contains water) - temporary water ( temporary water surfaces, aliteration of dry and water) - sea water (oceans and sea) - clouds

The High Resolution Layer Cropping Patterns - Cropping Seasons Types (CPCSY) raster product provides the number of different crop types grown in a 3-year period [0-3] (excluding cover crops). This dataset is provided annually starting in 2017 with 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries. High Resolution Layer Croplands product is part of the European Union’s Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. This dataset includes data from the French Overseas Territories (DOMs)

The High Resolution Layer Crop Types (CTY) raster product provides high resolution crop type classification for 17 classes of both arable and permanent crops accross the EEA38 extent. Using both Sentinel-1 and Sentiel-2, the model is finetuned to first map the crop field boundaries, and then determine the main crop for each field. This dataset is provided annually starting in 2017 with 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries. High Resolution Layer Croplands product is part of the European Union’s Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. Confidence layer available for the dataset. This dataset includes data from the French Overseas Territories (DOMs)

The High Resolution Dominant Leaf Type (DLT) raster product provides a basic land cover classification with 3 thematic classes (all non-tree covered areas, broadleaved and coniferous). This dataset is provided annually starting with 2018 in 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries. High Resolution Layer Tree Cover and Forest product is part of the European Union’s Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. Confidence layer available for the dataset. This dataset includes data from the French Overseas Territories (DOMs)

The Confidence Layer (WCL) is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Water Snow & Ice portfolio (HR-WSI), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards. The WCL is displaying a measure of confidence between 0 and 100%. It identifies the likelihood of (in)correctness on pixel level based on information gained during production for the WL for the 2021 reference year. It is also generated in different spatial resolutions (10m and 100m) and projections (LAEA & WGS84/UTM). The High Resolution Water Layer portfolio consists of the WL, the Water Presence Index (WPI), the Water confidence layer (WCL) and the Rolling archive (WLRA).

The Rolling Archive database (WLRA) is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Water Snow & Ice portfolio (HR-WSI), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards. The High Resolution Water Layer portfolio consists of the Water Layer (WL), the Water Presence Index (WPI), the Water confidence layer (WCL) and the Rolling archive (WLRA). The WLRA consists of intermediate production layers such as water and wetness masks showing the seasonal water and dry occurrences starting 2009. The masks are used for the generation of the Water Layer which covers a period of seven years per reference year and is regularly updated every three years. It is therefore important that it is consistent over the entire period. To guarantee reproducibility and future continuation of the baseline product, these masks are provided within a database consisting of all seasonal masks starting from 2009. With the new update of the Water product, the HR WL for the reference year 2021 only water masks will be continued. Additionally, the computation frequency changed from seasonal to monthly masks. This update covers a period from 2016.09.01 to 20211231 including an update of the masks already availbe from the historic 2018 production. The binary masks are provided across Europe in a spatial resolution of 10 m x 10 m as GeoTiffs zipped in a ZARR file.

The High Resolution Layer Cropping Patterns - Fallow Land Duration (CPFLD) raster product provides the total fallow land duration (in days) over the complete period 2017-2021. This dataset is provided annually starting in 2017 with 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles covering the EEA38 countries.
