Resource Abstract:
The Earth Observation Team of the Science and Technology Branch (STB) at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) uses Landsat-8, Sentinel-2, and RADARSAT-2 imagery to consistently deliver a crop inventory that meets the overall target accuracy of at least 85% at a final spatial resolution of 30-meters.

Resource Classification Categories:
Barley, 133
Millet, 135
Wheat, 140
Sorghum, 142
Winter Wheat, 145
Spring Wheat, 146
Corn, 147
Canola/Rapeseed, 153
Sunflower, 157
Soybeans, 158

Reprocessing for MODIS-GLAM (250-meter) applications:

1. Pixel values for above crops were set to a binary value of 1.
   
2. Above binary cropland data set was resampled from 30-meters to 250-meters spatial resolution.
