Green card Flanders 2012

This green map is a grid (1 m resolution) segmentation classification of the summer flight orthophotos commissioned by the Agency for Nature and Forests (ANB). For this purpose, the Research & Development (R&D) line of the Geographic Information Agency (AGIV) carried out a segmentation classification of the mid-scale summer flight orthophotos to create a map with the classes ‘Not Green’, ‘Agriculture’, ‘Low Green’ (less than 3m) and ‘High Green’ (more than 3m). Based on the Agricultural Use Parcel Map 2012 (Agency for Agriculture and Fisheries), ‘Low Green’ and ‘Not Green’ are classified as ‘Agriculture’. This means that e.g. trees in agricultural area are classified as ‘High Green’.
