Data for the practical exercises in the book "Land Use Cover Datasets and Validation Tools"

The dataset includes data for three different case studies: The Asturias Central Area (Spain), the Ariège Valley (France) and Marqués de Comillas (Mexico). For the Asturias Central Area and the Ariège Valley, the dataset includes Land Use Cover (LUC) maps for several years of reference as well as data (simulation outputs, model drivers) for different modelling exercises.

For Marqués de Comillas, the dataset includes a LUC map and a set of reference points used to validate it. The dataset includes a readme file listing all the files it contains and auxiliary files describing the data. For further information on the study area and the files used in the practical exercises, users are referred to Chapter 1 of the book.
