The National Land Cover Database 2011 (NLCD 2011) is the most recent national land cover data released by the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium. Using a 30 meter grid resolution this data provides a much finer view of land cover than any of the previous databases we’ve made available.
