is it possible to upload a digital land cover in vector or ratser that I digitized to Trends Earth and if anyone can give me brief instructions how to do it?

Hi Sinisa,
Yes, it is possible to use custom land cover maps in trends.earth. Here is a video that describes the steps
What you need to have are land cover in TIFF format, understand the land cover codes then upload and prepare your data in accordance with the Good Practice Guidance.

Dear Tom,

Thank you very much for this video.

I have some questions. When I create land cover in raster format,

When I create a land cover in TIFF format, how do I insert the codes? Should they be in the attribute table in number format (integer)? Do you have an example or a print screen to send me?

Kind regards,

Sinisa

Hello everyone, I'm having a problem creating a custom land cover. I followed the instructions and got this error

File "C:\PROGRA~1\QGIS32~1.13\apps\Python39\lib\site-packages\osgeo\gdal.py", line 6153, in wrapper_GDALWarpDestName
              return _gdal.wrapper_GDALWarpDestName(*args)
             TypeError: object of wrong GDALDatasetShadow


Does anyone know what the problem is? Kind regards

Hi everyone, there might be a discrepancy between GDAL versions in
QGIS and the Python environment. First, update to the latest version
of QGIS (3.40.2-Bratislava). Then, install OSGeo4W and ensure QGIS is
included during installation. Be patient; the installation process is
lengthy.
OSGeo4W here: https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/
I hope this helps. Have a nice day😁!
Franklin
