Land Cover

For the implementation of the INSPIRE specifications for Land Cover (Annex II) the CODIIGE Technical Working Group on Land Occupation has prepared a Guide for the transformation of spatial data sets of land cover to comply with the INSPIRE Directive adjusted to Spanish needs.

This guide defines a set of common classes for all Spanish Land Cover datasets, including SIOSE, which is called "CODIIGE" classification.

This implementation involves classifying each SIOSE polygon according to its majority or most representative land cover and assigning a "CODIIGE" classification value to the whole polygon.

The definition of the "CODIIGE" classes is listed below:

Each CODIIGE class has an associated colour forming the legend "CODIIGE".

This "CODIIGE" classification is listed in table TC_SIOSE_CODIIGE of the SIOSE database.
This table is related to the SIOSE polygon table (T_POLYGONS) through the common field 'HILUCS':
