LCDB v4.1 Version Trace, Mainland New Zealand
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis data set (LCDB v4.1 Version Trace) allows users to track changes back to the previous version (v4.0), and to reconcile derived quantities, such as the total area of a class in a region, to those derived from the earlier LCDB version. Additionally the authority (and date) for mapping the change is recorded in this database where such a change has been...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

Land Cover Database - LCDB v3.3 Change
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis data set (LCDB v3.3 Change) is a mask of non temporal changes made between LCDB v3.3 and the previous version (LCDB v3.0) and temporal change between the 2001 and 2008 timesteps. The non-temporal changes include errors in the earlier mappings and linework refinement, including reversal of over-smoothed hand-drawn linework in v3.0. Errors were...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
Land Cover Database - LCDB v3.0 Change
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis data set is a mask of the temporal and non temporal changes made between land cover database v3.0 and the previous version (land cover database-2). The non-temporal changes include errors in the earlier mappings, step artefact removal, and coastline adjustments. Note: the non-temporal attribute is named "NoTemporal" due to a character length...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
