Abstract
Daily global mosaics of data acquired by the VEGETATION instrument onboard the SPOT 4 between Nov. 1st, 1999 and Dec. 31st, 2000 have been used to produce a reference high quality global land cover map (GLC 2000) and the global survey of burned surfaces (GBA 2000). These products have been generated through an international partnership coordinated by the Joint Research Centre and are now freely available to users. This paper reviews briefly the results achieved and provides an assessment of the specific properties of the VEGETATION data for land cover and burn scar mapping at continental to global scales.
