Description: This dataset contains the spatial location, extent and distribution of various land cover types. The data was generated from digital interpretation of the 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite imagery from the European Space Agency (ESA) with 10-meter resolution and other available high-resolution satellite imagery. The Sentinel-2 was processed based on the 12 land cover categories, namely: Closed Forest, Open Forest, Mangrove Forest, Brush/Shrubs, Grassland, Perennial Crop, Annual Crop, Open/Barren, Built-up, Marshland/Swamp, Fishpond and Inland Water. These categories are consistent with the 2015 Land Cover Map classification scheme. The dataset is referenced based on Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Zone 51N projection with Philippine Reference System of 1992 (PRS92)as horizontal datum.
