Development of accuracy of phenology observations and land uses and land cover classification by near-surface and satellite remote sensing is an important but challenging task to evaluate the spatio-temporal variability of ecosystem functions and service, and biodiversity. Towards this aim, we require abundant ground-truth in multiple points for a broad scale. Recently, in Japan, we can use open-access data on the web sites such as phenological information for tourisms and land uses and land cover information collected by avocational volunteers. Here, we present a recent new approach by integrating analysis between remote sensing observations and open-access data, and then discuss usability, issues, and outlook of this approach.
