The production of the HRL Imperviousness is coordinated by EEA in the frame of Copernicus, the Earth observation component of the European Union’s Space programme. The product is a raster dataset with 100-meter grid spacing (spatial resolution) that covers the 38 Eionet member and cooperating countries as well as the United Kingdom (i.e. EEA38+UK). It is distributed as 100 x 100 km tiles that are fully conformant with the EEA reference grid.

Within the Copernicus component, a portfolio of land monitoring activities has been delegated by the European Union to the European Environment Agency (EEA) and the DG Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. The Copernicus land monitoring products and services are made available on a principle of full, open and free access, as established by the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1159/2013 of 12 July 2013. Free, full and open access to the products and services of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service is made on the conditions that: 1. When distributing or communicating Copernicus Land Monitoring Service products and services (data, software scripts, web services, user and methodological documentation and similar) to the public, users shall inform the public of the source of these products and services. 2. Where the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service products and services have been adapted or modified by the user, the user shall clearly state this. 3. Users shall make sure not to convey the impression to the public that the user's activities are officially endorsed by the European Union. grid 100 utf8 environment imageryBaseMapsEarthCover 2018-01-01 2021-12-31 -27.2461 46.582 34.543 72.0537 Pixel class codes: 0: Unchanged non-built-up areas 1: New cover 2: Loss of cover 10: Unchanged Built-Up areas 11: Increased Built-Up density 12: Decreased Built-Up density 255: Outside area GeoTIFF 1.0 https://land.copernicus.eu/en/products/high-resolution-layer-imperviousness WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Product Information & Technical Documentation https://wekeo.copernicus.eu/data?view=catalogue&facets=contactOrg%7EEuropean+Environment+Agency WWW:URL WEkEO Portal https://doi.org/10.2909/12f1df1b-999e-46ba-9b00-fc9fb9ad6e82 DOI 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 2010-12-08 publication See the referenced specification The Share of Built-Up Change Classified (SBCC) 2018–2021 layer was derived from the Share of Built-Up Change (SBUC) 2018–2021 layer by applying a rule-based reclassification of the continuous range values, grouping them into categories: "new cover," "loss of cover," "unchanged," "increased cover," and "decreased cover." Changes to previous release (2018): - Introduction of a new production system and algorithm (U-Net CNN). - Reduction of in-situ data dependency for dataset production. - First Impervious Built-up Change (IBUC) layer (2018-2021).
