This document presents the findings of the Working Group on Global Land Cover Validation, a topical group within the Land Product Validation (LPV) subgroup of the Working Group on Calibration and Validation (WGCV) of the Committee on Earth Observing Satellites (CEOS). The Land Product Validation subgroup (LPV) was established in 2000 with the mission to foster quantitative validation of higher-level global land products derived from remote sensing data and provide quantitative results that are relevant to users. It responds to a concerted international effort to assure the validation of global land science data products now being made available from a new generation of satellite sensors. To meet this mission, the LPV subgroup has established the following objectives:
