This is really great stuff. I am attempting a validation with the collection 3 data in Google Earth, making use of the hi-res digital aerial imagery thats available randomly for various areas of the taiga.
One suggestion – it might be a little better if you changed the color scheme to differentiate better b/w low % coverage and no trees.
Had trouble accessing this today.
It loaded, but after a lengthy attempt of the network link to load the data it came up with errors accessing the data (including the screen overlay).
Paul, you are probably better off posting your comment at the Google Earth BBS (see link above). However, I doubt there is much that can be done unless to change the map unless you contact the original source, Global Land Cover Facility.
Frank, this was created by Gerardo64 and he said his server was slow so may be overloading it.
I just tried it and still some red X’s. The files aren’t on my server so not much I can do aside from offering to host his files, which I’ll have to think about.
