within the MODIS annual landcover product (MCD12Q1). This data was
converted from its categorical format, which has a ≈500 meter resolution,
to a fractional product indicating the integer percentage (0-100) of the
output pixel covered by each of the 17 landcover classes (1 per band).
The underlying dataset for this landcover product is the IGBP layer found
within the MODIS annual landcover product (MCD12Q1). This data was
converted from its categorical format, which has a ≈500 meter resolution,
to a fractional product indicating the integer percentage (0-100) of the
output pixel covered by each of the 17 landcover classes (1 per band).
