Abstract
In 1985 the Corine programme was initiated in the European Union. Corine means 'coordination of information on the environment' and it was a prototype project working on many different environmental issues. The Corine databases and several of its programmes have been taken over by the EEA. One of these is an inventory of land cover in 44 classes, and presented as a cartographic product, at a scale of 1:100 000. This database is operationally available for most areas of Europe (http://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/COR0-landcover).

Method Description
The methodology consists of computer-assisted photointerpretation of satellite data by using ancillary data (topographical and thematical maps, statistics etc.). The photointerpretation
was done on the basis of satellite data on a scale of 1 : 100.000. The data were mapped according to the CORINE Landcover Nomenclature, which consists of 44 different landcover / landuse types.
The surface area of the smallest unit mapped is 25 hectares. For line elements the minimum width is 100 meters.
