Orthophoto Mosaic of Veerse Meer in False Color, 2011

An orthophoto mosaic of the Veerse Meer area produced from stereo aerial images captured on 25 May 2011. The dataset was commissioned by the Water Service in support of the Ecotopen 2011 monitoring programme and is available in multiple geospatial formats. The data is published under a CC0-1.0 license by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations.

Use Cases

• Land cover classification based on false-color aerial imagery.
• Change detection analysis for ecological monitoring using the 2011 temporal snapshot.
• Basemap creation for GIS projects covering the Veerse Meer region.
• Validation of other remote sensing data products for the specified area and date.

Strengths

• Provides a specific temporal snapshot from a known acquisition date (25 May 2011).
• Offers multiple standard geospatial file formats (JPEG, ECW, WCS, WMS) for flexibility.
• Created from stereo aerial images, which likely provides high spatial resolution and geometric accuracy.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; the data is a single snapshot from 2011.
