Description: The land cover classification was completed for the Island of Newfoundland based on the twelve independent Landsat scenes. The initial list of land cover classes was provided by SDSS. This list was derived from the land cover classes used in Nalcor Energy’s ELC as part of the Lower Churchill Transmission Line Project. Citation: "Integrated Informatics Inc.
