North American Land Change Monitoring System (NALCMS) – North American Land Cover (30 m)
NALCMS provides harmonized, trinational land cover maps for North America by combining national land cover products from Canada, the United States, and Mexico into a consistent continental mosaic. A recent 30-meter North American land cover dataset reflects land cover information for 2020 from Mexico and Canada, 2019 over the conterminous United States, and 2021 over Alaska, using Landsat 8 imagery inputs and country-specific classification methods integrated into a seamless product.
