Summary

Description

Seasonal composites of fractional vegetation cover for Queensland since 1987, derived from USGS Landsat TM, ETM+ and OLI images. Also includes field data used for calibration and validation of fractional cover dataset (Star Transect Field Data). The data provided are 30 m resolution raster format images of land cover fractions (representing the proportions of green, non-green and bare cover) as well as two derived cover decile products at the same scale. The products are composited from single dates into representative seasonal images, for standard calendar seasons. The field data component constitutes 1500 Australia-wide sites. **Additional resources** - [Product Metadata - Seasonal Fraction Cover](http://qld.auscover.org.au/thredds/catalog/auscover/landsat/seasonal_fractional_cover/catalog.html) - [Product Metadata - Cover Deciles](http://data.auscover.org.au/xwiki/bin/view/Product+pages/Seasonal+Cover+Deciles) - [Product Metadata - Field Data](http://data.auscover.org.au/xwiki/bin/view/Product+pages/SLATS+Star+Transect+Data) - [Field data access help](http://data.auscover.org.au/xwiki/bin/view/Field+Sites/Access+Field+Data)
