Abstract | National Land Cover Dataset data produced by MRLC (Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics Consortium). NLCD 2006 is based primarily on the unsupervised classification of Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper+ (ETM+) circa 2006 satellite data. Original raster layer converted to polygon features for enhanced display in MapGuide (esp. maptips) at scales greater than 1:50,000. See more information. | |
