Copernicus Land Monitoring Service: Production of two CLC+ Backbone raster product updates for the reference years 2023 and 2025
The subject of this call for tenders is to set up a framework service contract with an economic operator covering the production of the CLC+ Backbone (CLC+ BB) raster product. This is the continuation of a raster land cover (LC) product that was already produced for the 2018 and 2021 reference years as part of a framework service contract awarded in 2019. CLC+ BB raster is a crucial land cover product that aims at a frequent update with a fast production/availability after the reference year. CLC+ BB raster is part of the CLC+ system, which contains geospatial products (CLC+ BB), a database/web application (CLC+ Core), and derived 100m grid products that are tailor-made for policy applications (CLC+ Instances). These components are now all functional, and one of the most important input datasets for CLC+ Core is the CLC+ BB raster product.
