Environment Digimap offers land cover map data from the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH). University of Stirling has access until 31st July 2014 while the Collection is free from EDINA.
Environment Digimap offers two facilities: mapping through Environment Roam, and the ability to download data through Environment Download.
The data available, CEH’s Land Cover Map products, provide a snapshot of land cover for each of the years 1990, 2000 and 2007.
There are raster datasets available at 25m and 1km resolutions for each year and a vector version of the 2000 dataset. The data are in a range of formats depending on the year.
For more information see our Environment Digimap guide.
