We are in the process of migrating all NASA Earth science data sites into Earthdata from now until end of 2026. Not all NASA Earth science data and resources will appear here until then. Thank you for your patience as we make this transition.

Land Use/Land Cover Classification Data Access and Tools
Land use and cover data from NASA range from high-resolution imagery and interferograms to vegetation maps. Our datasets and tools help users find and integrate the data they need to study the enormous range of land cover types across Earth and understand how they function as a part of natural and human environments.
