Land Cover/Land Use maps (30m) for Shivamogga, Sindhudurg and Wayanad, India, 2018
This dataset contains Land Cover/Land Use (LCLU) maps for Sindhudurg, Shivamogga and Wayanad, India. LCLU products are state-of-the-art statically stable and area weighted accuracy assessed products. The LCLU product was generated for Kyasanur Forest Disease (KFD), a Zoonotic disease. KFD is an “ecotonal” disease. Diverse forest-plantation mosaics, zone moist evergreen forest and plantation, and low coverage of dry deciduous forest will cause higher risks for KFD. Our LCLU product aimed to separate diverse forest types and plantation and we achieved high accuracy (>90%). The study covers Sindhudurg, Shivamogga, and Wayanad Western Ghats district which belong to Indian state Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Kerala respectively.

The Land Cover/Land Use (LCLU) product was derived from Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager reflectance Tier 1 imagery. The signature was randomly divided into 20% test sample size and 80% sample size. The 80% sample size was further divided into 30% validation sample and 70% training sample and the sampling strategy was carried out randomly for 50 times. Each set of the 70% (training set) and 30% sample (validation set) was used to generate the LCLU and validate it. The final LCLU was a mode of 50 time LCLU and finally the 20% sample was used for testing the accuracy of Mode’s LCLU.
