Metadata
- Relation:
- Parent data set: Corine Land Cover 2000 raster data
-
Scale of the data set:
- 1:100000
-
Rights:
- European Commission - DG JRC, Ispra, 2007
-
Methodology:
Each pixel value is the estimated density of inhab/km2. Note however that a pixel is 100 m x 100 m, ie 1 hectare. The pixel value should hence be divided by 100 in order not to overestimate the population density. The data is in integer values.
