The US Geological Survey, Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center is offering a new funding opportunity designed to advance the critical field of land cover product validation. This grant is specifically for research focused on developing sophisticated accuracy assessment analysis science strategies. The primary purpose of this initiative is to enhance the validation processes for significant land cover change products, such as the National Land Cover Database (NLCD) and the Global 30-meter land cover datasets. Researchers awarded this grant will contribute to improving the reliability and precision of these vital environmental monitoring tools by refining the scientific methodologies used for assessing land cover change observations.
