- Summary
- Coastal change analysis. Standardized database of land cover and land change information for the coastal regions of the U.S. Inventories of coastal inter-tidal areas, wetlands, and adjacent uplands.
- Parameters
- Landcover thematic class, percent impervious surface, percent tree canopy cover.
- Notes
- These products update all previously released versions of landcover and impervious products for CONUS (NLCD 2001, NLCD 2006, NLCD 2011) and are not directly comparable to previous products. A new High Resolution land cover mapping started in 2021, but as of Nov. 28, 2023 it is only available for the Tampa area: https://coast.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/data/ccaphighres.html .
- Application
- To contribute the “coastal expression” of the National Land Cover Database (NLCD) and the A-16 land cover theme of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure.
