LCMAP Science Products are developed by applying time-series modeling to U.S. Landsat Analysis Ready Data (ARD) to classify land cover and detect land surface change. Products are also available for download from EarthExplorer and through the LCMAP web viewer (please see the Data Access page for more information on download options).

LCMAP represents a new generation of land cover mapping and change monitoring of the U.S., providing validated annual land cover and change information for the past 30-plus years.
