The data set CLC5 (2018) represents a description of the landscape in vector format according to the nomenclature of CORINE Land Cover (CLC) of the European Environment Agency, which on the one hand reflects land cover and also includes land use aspects. The basis for CLC5 (2018) is the land cover model Germany 2018 (LBM-DE2018) with its detailed breakdown in land cover (LB) and land use (LN) as well as information on the sealing (SIE) and vegetation share (VEG) with a minimum object size of 1 ha. Unambiguous CLC classes (“CLC18”) are derived from the combinations of LB and LN taking into account SIE and VEG. This data is then generalised for CLC5 (2018) to a minimum area size of 5 ha.
