Pan-Arctic area belongs to the high latitudes, and the vegetation in Pan-Arctic mainly belongs to the temperature-limited ecosystem, and thus the vegetation is sensitive to global warming. A vegetation atlas with high accuracy is the scientific basis for the study of response of vegetation to climate change and its driving mechanisms. However, there is a large room for improvement of vegetation type classification in the Pan-Arctic regions. For a better knowledge of the current status, history, and future trends in the vegetation mapping, we comprehensively reviewed the data resources, approaches, and methods of vegetation type classification in the Pan-Arctic region. Overall, the field survey of vegetation began in the 1920s, and there have been some land cover type data at the regional scale. However, there are still many challenges for Pan-Arctic vegetation type mapping, which can be attributed to several reasons such as differences in field survey data, standards for the land cover type classification, and the heterogeneities in tundra ecosystem, and differences in mapping methods and difficulties of optimizing algorithm. In the future work, more attentions should be paid to standard classification rules, and standard dataset preparation and integration, which will benefit the development of new methods for vegetation type mapping in the Pan-Arctic area.
