Karachi (Pakistan) - Land Use/Land Cover (ESA EO4SD-Urban)
Primary tabs
Land Use / Land Cover (LULC) information product over Karachi (Pakistan) contains spatial explicit information about the different land covers / uses for current (2017) and past (2005) dates. The level of detail for the classification scheme mainly relies on the input data sources. LULC dataset provides detailed information (level-3) over core urban areas covered by very high resolution satellite imagery, and level-1 information over peri-urban areas covered by lower resolution satellite imagery.
