Description

The underlying dataset for this landcover product is the IGBP layer found within the MODIS annual landcover product (MCD12Q1). This data was converted from its categorical format, which has a ≈500 meter resolution, to a fractional product indicating the integer percentage (0-100) of the output pixel covered by each of the 17 landcover classes (1 per band).

This dataset was produced by Harry Gibson and Daniel Weiss of the Malaria Atlas Project (Big Data Institute, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, https://malariaatlas.org/).
