With the change from version 17 to version 18 the data basis changes from the 2006 data (CLC2006) to the 2012 data (CLC2012). This 6 year interval is associated withs some changes in the dataset. Details about the comparison of the CLC2006 and the CLC2012 product are documented in the „CORINE Land Cover 2012 - Final Validation Report“ der EEA (Document: GIO_CLC2012_Validation_Report_SC2_1_4) which was published 10/02/2017.
