Hey all, I'll point out that a past post highlights a similar issue related to land cover mapping (specifically this whole detail VS. accuracy concept). I agree that both concepts need to be considered, but stress that they are not interchangable terms (and point out that it IS actually possible to have a less detailed product that is more accurate... wrap your mind around that!).
