Land use classification for land use monitoring / David M. Gierman.: En73-4/17E-PDF

"Canada is a vast country with a variety of land cover and uses of land. In 1977, the Lands Directorate of Environment Canada began a project to develop a program to monitor changes in the use of Canada's land. One of the areas of development of the program was the designing of a new land use classification system. This report presents the rational and criteria for the development of a new classification system, and an outline of the new system itself. The report also shows how the new system can be related to the Canada Land Inventory Land Use Classification system"--Abstract.
