Earthtrack App |
Earthtrack is a multi-module mobile application that was developed through Living Earth to routinely, consistently and globally record information on land cover (including vegetation strata and dominant plant species) and land cover change with additional modules focused on country-specific habitats and fire. Earthtrack has been developed to support the validation of thematic maps generated primarily from Earth observation data and using globally applicable taxonomies. |

Data submitted can be used directly to validate mpas of land cover, habitat and change generated primarily from Earth observation data where these use the same land cover and change taxonomies. These are, respectively, the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) and Living Earth’s Global Change Taxonomy. "
