Green card Flanders 2009

This green map is a grid (1 m resolution) segmentation classification of the 2009 summer flight orthophotos commissioned by the Agency for Nature and Forest (ANB). For this purpose, the Research & Development (O & O) of the Agency for Geographical Information (AGIV) carried out a segmentation classification of the mid-scale summer flight orthophotos from 2009 to create a map showing the classes ‘Not green’, ‘Agriculture’, ‘Low Green’ (less than 3 m) and ‘High Green’ (more than 3 m). Based on the Agricultural Use Plot map of 2009 (Agency for Agriculture and Fisheries), ‘Low Green’ and ‘Non Green’ are classified as ‘Agriculture’. This means that trees in agricultural area are classified as ‘High Green’.
