Towards accelerating 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda - 15min questionnaire to describe the diversity of approaches to document and apply LCLU

The classification of Land Cover and Land Use (LCLU) is critical for addressing many of the UN Sustainability Goals. LCLU data standards are critical to support UN Agencies like the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). With the objective to describe the diversity of approaches to document and apply LC and LU and receive guidance by experts involved in mapping Land Cover and Land Use (LCLU), this questionnaire has been prepared to support the ISO TC211 Advisory Group 13 on Land Cover and Land Use.
