3 Today: a Photo Taken in Morning Globeland30 Dr. Pascal Peduzzi Head of Global Change and Vulnerability Unit United Nations Environment Programme the first open-access, high-resolution map of Earth s land cover

4 Yesterday: Nature published (514:434, 23 Oct. 2014) China: Open access to Earth land cover map The map, known as GlobeLand30, comprises data sets collected at 30 metreresolution more than ten times that of previous data sets. The GlobeLand30 data sets are freely available and comprise ten types of land cover, including forests, artificial surfaces and wetlands, for the years 2000 and 2010.

5 Last Month: Donated to UNs Sept , New York, donation ceremony of GlobeLand30 UN SG Ban Ki moon said: The World needs solid, science based information for making wise decisions for sustainable development. These detailed data sets will help us to better understand, monitor and manage changes in land cover and land use all over our planet

23 Global Challenges Need Global Solutions (Nature : 18 Oct 2012) The challenges confronting global decision makers are growing in complexity, intensity and urgency. Environmental change, pandemics, natural disasters, nuclear catastrophes, displaced populations, water shortages, rising ocean levels and widespread malnutrition do not stop at nation al borders or the water s edge. Addressing such issues requires cross border cooperation and pooled resources.

24 Sustaining The Future We Want Measure Monitor Manage Depends critically on global geospatial information Land Cover Land Parcels & Property Transport Elevation & Depth Geocoded Addressing Administrative Boundaries Imagery Place Names
