(JRC) of the European Commission (Kempeneers et al. 2011). It is a wall-to-wall map
for Europe (includingTurkey) and has been classified based on 25m spatial resolution
remote sensing data (acquired with the LISS-III sensor data onboard the IRS-P6
satellite). This pan-European forest type map can be downloaded in tiles, projected
in the European ETRS89-LAEA coordinate reference system (EPSG:3035). We have
downloaded tiles 33 and 43, corresponding to the files 13

The other land cover product is the global land cover product MCD12Q1 from
from MODIS. It contains 16 single band datasets in HDF4 format 14 and can be
downloaded from the USGS land processes distributed active archive (LP DAAC). 15

Other Raster Data
What do IEEE Transactions on Image Processing and Playboy magazine have in
common? Lena Söderberg, a Swedish model that was Miss November in 1972. The
centerfold's image was scanned as a 512 by 512 pixel sized image and became
one of the most widely used standard test images used for compression and other
image processing algorithms. It was not until 1988 that she found out about this
extraordinary use of her picture. 16 At the age of 46, the “first lady of the Internet”
was invited to the 50th Anniversary IS&T conference held in Boston in May 1997.
The image can be downloaded from the image database of the University of southern
California. 17
