The land cover legend registry provides access to available land cover legends used to describe land cover. The description of the land cover classes has been extracted from the original documents. Several of them were prepared using LCCS2 and/or LCCS3 tool and/or LCHS tool. All the legends provided in the registry can also be accessed from LCHS tool. This registry supports cloud computing platforms i.e., SEPAL. The land cover legends are available in different file formats that can be downloaded easily by clicking the format. Land cover data for available datasets can also be accessible and downloaded with relevant documentations. The registry supports different languages including English (main), French, Urdu and others. The structure of a set of registers and an associated registry for the description of the Land Cover legends used by the UN FAO and associated other organizations is based on the registry concepts identified in ISO 19144-1 and makes use of the descriptive metalanguage described in ISO 19144-2.
