The Start-of-Season Value (SOSV), one of the Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (VPP) parameters, is a product of the pan-European High Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP) component of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS). The Start-of-Season Value (SOSV) provides the value of the Plant Phenology Index (PPI) at the start of the vegetation growing season. The Plant Phenology Index (PPI) is a physically based vegetation index, developed for improving the monitoring of the vegetation growth cycle. The PPI index values, with 5-day satellite revisit cycle, are first used in a function fitting to derive the PPI Seasonal Trajectories, which is a filtered time series with regular 10-day time step. From these Seasonal Trajectories, a suite of 13 Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (VPP) parameters are then computed and provided, for up to two seasons each year. The Start-of-Season Value is one of the 13 parameters. A complementary quality indicator (QFLAG) provides a confidence level, that is described in table 4 of the same manual. The SOSV dataset is made available as raster files with 10 x 10m resolution, in UTM/WGS84 projection corresponding to the Sentinel-2 tiling grid, for those tiles that cover the EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom and and for two seasons in each year from 2017 onwards. It is updated in the first quarter of each year.

The High Resolution Layer Cropping Patterns - Fallow Land Duration (CPFLD) raster product provides information on the duration of fallow land periods, expressed in days, over a five-year period. 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 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 Seasonal Productivity (SPROD), one of the Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (VPP) parameters, is a product of the pan-European High Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP) component of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS). The Seasonal Productivity (SPROD), or small integral, is the growing season integral that is computed as the sum of all daily Plant Phenology Index (PPI) values between the dates of the season start (SOSD) and end (EOSD), minus their base level value. The Plant Phenology Index (PPI) is a physically based vegetation index, developed for improving the monitoring of the vegetation growth cycle. The PPI index values, with 5-day satellite revisit cycle, are first used in a function fitting to derive the PPI Seasonal Trajectories, which is a filtered time series with regular 10-day time step. From these Seasonal Trajectories, a suite of 13 Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (VPP) parameters are then computed and provided, for up to two seasons each year. The Seasonal Productivity is one of the 13 parameters. A complementary quality indicator (QFLAG) provides a confidence level, that is described in table 4 of the same manual. The SPROD dataset is made available as raster files with 10 x 10m resolution, in UTM/WGS84 projection corresponding to the Sentinel-2 tiling grid, for those tiles that cover the EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom and for two seasons in each year from 2017 onwards. It is updated in the first quarter of each year.

The High Resolution Layer Cropping Patterns - Secondary Crop Emergence (CPSCE) raster product provides the date of emergence of the cover crop in days of the year (DOY). YYDOY where YY = last 2 digits of the year (e.g. 19 for 2019) and DOY is the day of the year (1-365) 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 Coastal Zones (CZ) LC/LU product for 2012 is providing a detailed Land Cover / Land Use (LC/ LU) dataset for areas along the coastline of the EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom, with reference year 2012 for the classification. This product monitors landscape dynamics in European coastal territory to an inland depth of 10 km with a total area of approximately 730,000 km², with all the relevant areas (estuaries, coastal lowlands, nature reserves).

The Coastal Zones product covers a buffer zone of coastline derived from EU-Hydro v1.1. Land Cover/Land Use (LC/LU) layer is extracted from Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite data and other available data. The class definitions follow the pre-defined nomenclature on the basis of Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) typology of ecosystems (Level 1 to Level 4) and CORINE Land Cover adapted to the specific characteristics of coastal zones. The classification provides 71 distinct thematic classes with a Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) of 0.5 ha and a Minimum Mapping Width (MMW) of 10 m. The product is available for the 2012 and 2018 reference year including change mapping. This CZ dataset is distributed in vector format, in a single OGC GeoPackage SQLite file covering the area of interest.

This is the metadata covering the Water Layer (WL) product.
