Definition		Any unvegetated surfaces, either covered with man-made artificial structures or geologically natural material surfaces (with or without anthropogenic influence or impact).

Definition		Algae are a very large group of different eukaryotic plant organisms that usually live in a habitat under or close to the water surface. There are also some algae that live on solid ground like rocks or tree stems in sufficiently humid micro climate conditions. From a biological perspective it is difficult to group them systematically, which is out of scope here. They can have all kinds of different plant sizes and growth forms. For this data model it seems reasonable to distinguish between macro algae like seaweeds and kelp that have similar twig-like shape to terrestrial plants, and micro algae.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		All surfaces where natural landscape has been changed by or is under influence of human construction activities by replacing natural surfaces with artificial 2D/3D constructions or abiotic artificial materials. Artificial parts of urban and rural areas, where mankind has built settlement infrastructures. Includes: Sealed areas (buildings, other constructions and sealed flat surfaces) and non-sealed areas (no buildings, artificial and unsealed). Excludes: Urban greenery may be artificial and under human maintenance and form part of settlements, but after all it is vegetation and not to be placed here but under LCC-2 Biotic Vegetation.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		The rock surface is continuous except perhaps for a few cracks in the material. Some areas may be covered by shallow layers of soil or there could be isolated pockets of soil or a mixture of both. Includes: e.g. solid (closed) rock formations, fresh lava flows, quarries, mineral extraction sites, open pit mines.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Mixture of mineral and organic material that is fertile enough and capable of sustaining plant life, but being unvegetated at the moment of observation.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Any vegetated land surface, either naturally grown, semi-natural or artificially planted vegetation (e.g. crops, urban parks), with or without anthropogenic influence. Vegetation is subdivided into further components based on plant life forms i.e. woody, herbaceous, lichens/mosses.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Big mineral fragments, normally too heavy to be moved or carried a long distance by human strength, can only be moved by gravitative processes, glaciers or heavy floods, or stay on the spot till they further disintegrate. Particle size of ca. 20 to 200 cm or bigger.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Constructions above ground that are intended or used for the shelter of humans, animals, things, the production of economic goods or the delivery of services and that refer to any structure permanently constructed or erected on its site (based on INSPIRE Data Specification Buildings). Covered by roof, of human origin, made of and covered by artificial material (e.g. concrete, brick, metal) or natural material (e.g. rock, pale, soil/green roof, wood).
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Perennial woody plants with shrub growth form i.e. multiple stems arising at or near the base, height usually less than 5 meters. Leaf type can be needle leaf, broadleaf or palm leaf, phenology either evergreen or deciduous, leaf surface type can be regular or sclerophyllous. Includes: wild-growing and cultivated (agricultural, ornamental) species.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Very small mineral fragments, loose and shifting silt, clay surfaces, can be moved by aeolian erosion and moderate erosive water currencies. Particle size is below 0,06 mm. Includes: e.g. clay and silt flats, beaches, river sand banks, fine volcanic ash.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Consolidated Surfaces are natural stone materials of geological origin free of vegetation cover that have continuous solid surface and are less permeable to water compared to other natural surface. As they are natural, this character is not supposed to be given for 100% of such surfaces.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		The conventional buildings generally are hosting human activities (residential, industrial, commerce and services) and being of large or medium size (around 15-20 m2 and more). (INSPIRE TWG BU data specifications). Includes: e.g. dwelling houses, blocks of flats, city street blocks, stores, supermarkets, office buildings, agricultural buildings, studs, farms, industrial buildings.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Short woody plants characterized by chamaephyte (dwarf-shrub/subshrub) growth form, bearing their buds on persistent shoots close to the ground, usually no more than 25 centimeters. Applicable for stress-tolerant plant groups, making up alpine, arctic or dry ecosystems, growing on nutrient- poor, often acidic soils or rock; also for prostrate shrubs, whose branches lie upon or just above the ground usually because of strong wind. Includes: heathland/tundra species of e.g. the Calluna, Erica, Vaccinum, Salix groups, Mediterranean dwarf- shrub-form species such as Thymus, Lavander, Rosmarinus, alpine species of e.g. Rhododendron, Leontopodium.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Grasses, or more technically graminoids, are monocotyledonous, usually herbaceous plants with narrow leaves growing from the base. They include the true grasses, of the Poaceae (or Gramineae) family, as well as the sedges (Cyperaceae) and the rushes (Juncaceae). The true grasses include cereals, bamboo and the grasses of lawns (turf) and grassland. Sedges include many wild marsh and grassland plants, and some cultivated ones. Belonging here regardless of being wild-growing - forming natural grasslands or being component of other biomes (e.g. wetlands, forest, tundra) or cultivated – forming cropland (arable, meadow, pasture) or grass surfaces / lawn for sports / recreation.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Annual or perennial graminoid plants, naturally growing or cultivated, with potential height not exceeding 2 meter. Includes: most grass species and cereals (e.g. wheat, barley, maize, rice). Excludes: reeds and bamboo.
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Hardpans are particular soil layers or surfaces that have been indurated due to chemical or physical processes. Their hardness at the surface is irreversible. They form impenetrable layers for water and/or plant roots. In the context of LCML, these layers are only described when occurring at the surface
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		Annual, biennial or perennial plants that do not have a persistent woody stem above the ground (in botanical term: herb). In contrary to woody plants, which have stems above ground that remain alive during the dormant season and grow shoots the next year from the above-ground parts, shoots of herbaceous plant die down at the end of growing season, so they regenerate themselves from tissues left above or under the ground (e.g. bulbs, rhizomes, tubers, seeds).
Notation

Identifier
Label
Definition		All kinds of water surfaces on the inland with no direct interference or interchange with open sea water, regardless of salinity and origin (natural or artificial).

CSV Import

The CSV file should contain a header row for element names and data rows for concepts.
It is strongly recommended to use an exported CSV file as a template for bulk editing. Columns and rows can be added to or deleted from the template file.
A concept can be ignored by prepending a double-slash '//' to the concept row in the CSV

If the header row contains unknown elements the import will aborted and data will be rolled back
Erroneous concept rows are ignored, valid data rows are still imported
Successful import cannot be undone (unless "undo checkout" is performed)
If a concept with the same identifier already exists in the vocabulary it will be overwritten
"Purge Vocabulary" option deletes all the vocabulary concepts before import
