LULC Cerrado classification validation

Description

This dataset provides samples used for validation of the Cerrado LULC classification (see above). The authors did a systematic sampling of the Cerrado biome using a 20 x 20 km grid with a total of 5402 points. These samples are independent of the training set used in the classification. They were interpreted by five specialists using high resolution images from the same period of the classification. This resulted in 5286 evaluation samples thus distributed: "Annual Crop" (553), "Cerrado" (3155), "Natural Non Vegetated" (44), "Pasture" (1246), "Perennial Crop" (38), "Silviculture" (94), "Sugarcane" (77), and "Water" (79).
