TRANSCRIPT
Using the software “MultiSpec,” students follow protocols to prepare a “clustered” image
of their GLOBE Study Site
Students examine the “true color”And “false-color Infrared” images
provided by GLOBE to identify land cover types.
AA_Vis_2
Students gather data from 90 x 90
m Qualitative Land Cover Samples to check the
accuracy of their map
.

Site 4MUC 4522
Site 5MUC 52
Site 6MUC 72
Site 7MUC 4522
Site 8MUC 92
At each of these sites, the MUC value is determined, a GPS reading is
taken at the center, and
photographs are taken in
each cardinal direction.
These are Validation
Data
The Accuracy Assessment Data
Work Sheet is filled out for all
sites.
