Primitives as building blocks for constructing land cover maps.

Published in International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2019

Land cover maps play an integral role in environmental management. However, countries and institutes encounter many challenges with producing timely, efficient, and temporally harmonized updates to their land cover maps. To address these issues we present a modular Regional Land Cover Monitoring System (RLCMS) architecture that is easily customized to create land cover products using primitive map layers.
