Description
Within this dataset, land water transition zone maps, which indicate the land-water transition between two instances in time, of the Polyphytos open surface water reservoir in Greece and Giaretta reservoir in Italy, are available in GeoTIFF raster format. The maps depict the transition zones by indicating the change of the pixel status from non-inundated to inundated and vice versa between two provided dates. They were generated by the Land Water Transition Zone Change Detection service of the WQeMS project. Each raster file in the dataset is named according to the water body and the two dates during which the processing was performed. Copernicus Sentinel-2 data was utilized for the generation of the inundation maps on the two dates.
Notes
Information on the raster files:
Data type: Byte - Eight-bit unsigned integer,
Pixel_values:
"0": "land", areas that are not covered by water in both dates
"1": "water", areas that covered by water in both dates,
"2": "water_to_land", areas where transition from water to land took place,
"3": "land_to_water", areas where transition from land to water took place.
