Report of the UNEP-HEM/WCMC/GCTE Preparatory Meeting: Vegetation Classification - GEMS Report Series No. 19

United Nations Environment Programme (1993)

Participants met to discuss the need for an improved vegetation classification scheme for global mapping and monitoring, the requirements for such a scheme, the most promising approach to be used, and how best to proceed. The main purpose of the workshop was to prepare the ground for a much larger meeting which should involve all the major groups concerned with collection, dissemination and use of data on vegetation cover.
