Map of land cover in the cross-border area Romania-Bulgaria

The data set includes the Romanian land cover layer of the Romania-Bulgaria cross-border area (Mehedinți, Dolj, Olt, Teleorman, Giurgiu, Calarasi, Constanta), developed within the project “Common strategy for territorial development of the cross-border area Romania-Bulgaria”, code MIS-ETC 171, financed from the Romania-Bulgaria Cross Border Cooperation Programme 2007-2013. The data set is published in the coordinate system WGS 84/UTM zones 35N (to be compatible with the similar data set on the Bulgarian side). The data set is in line with the conceptual framework described in the Land Cover Data Specifications for the implementation of the INSPIRE Directive (version 3.0). The information layer was developed on the basis of a methodology developed within the project, which was carried out in the following way: Analysis and harmonisation of the land cover classification system; Obtaining and processing the reference data listed below; Checking and validating the quality of the spatial data produced; More information and reference data sets were analysed in the development of the data set: LPIS (Land Parcel Identification System), spatial data set owned by the Agency for Payments and Interventions in Agriculture — Orthophotos from 2005, held by the National Agency for Cadastre and Real Estate Advertising RapidEye images provided by the European Space Agency (Copernicus CORE 01 data set), obtained in 2011 @-@ 2012, mainly in March and October, with an accuracy of 5 m and 5 spectral bands — SPOT images provided by the European Space Agency (Copernicus CORE 03 data set), obtained in 2011 @-@ 2013, with an accuracy of 5 m, including infrared Information obtained through the use of Google Earth and StreetView — Field check — CORINE Land Cover data layer (CLC) Land cover data set resulting from the implementation of the FAO TCP project/ROM/2801, financed by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation Other relevant data sources (e.g.: topographic maps, forestry plans, cadastral plans) The dataset on the land cover layer is one of the common resources needed to develop the common territorial development strategy and monitor the impact for the Romania-Bulgaria cross-border area. To use the data set, it is necessary to download all files: .shp,.shx,.dbf,.prj,.cpg. The data set can also be downloaded in the.zip archive from http://spatial.mdrap.ro.
