Land Cover

Hi Evening. My LC type is just a bucket to hold topics associated with land cover descriptions and mapping so I can find them easily. A few months ago there was a discussion about modeling satellites. I made some suggestions for how the existing models should be changed and was asked to pursue it. I contacted some folks at NASA and found out that they were creating metadata schema to describe platforms, sensors, etc. I therefore decided to wait until NASA was further along in its schema development so we could possibly import or scrape their data into compatible Freebase schema. I've seen a few screen captures of the proposed NASA pages and found this DIF writer's guide but haven't heard of anything else yet. So, no accident but not really that purposeful either (yet). Thanks for asking.
