Have you considered using landsat-8 or sentinel-2 to get current landcover using the QGIS plugin Semi-Automatic Classification? Landviewer [1] has a nice interface for finding imagery that is cloud free and of recent vintage? The learning curve to landcover classification is a bit steep, but it should be sufficiently accurate for remote areas. I live in an area that is next to forested areas that is constantly being clear cut - with only logging roads to show human involvement. Being in the US's Pacific Northwest, I have to look for late fall to get cloud free imagery. If you do consider using data you derive, you definitely need to discuss it on the import list as well as with your local community.
