Land cover classes

VoxCity normalizes land cover from every supported source into a single set of standard classes. Each cell in the land cover grid — and each corresponding voxel — is assigned one of the following integer class indices.

Index	Class	Index	Class
1	Bareland	8	Mangrove
2	Rangeland	9	Water
3	Shrub	10	Snow and ice
4	Agriculture land	11	Developed space
5	Tree	12	Road
6	Moss and lichen	13	Building
7	Wet land	14	No Data

The mapping from each source’s native classes to these standard classes is applied automatically during model generation. For the list of land cover datasets and their coverage, see the Data sources reference.
