Copernicus Global Land Cover (GLC100)

MICRODEM recognizes these with "LC100_global" in the file name.  Do not rename unless you keep this in the file name

• 20x20 degree tiles named for the NW corner, but you can pick on the map to get the correct one.
• Leave all settings
• annual versions 2015-2019; click on the year to start download
• You can skip sending your opinion
• 3.6" spacing (~100 m)
• MICRODEM will use GDAL to open
  • Use a map open to the area you want because otherwise the file will probably be too large, will be very slow, and might fail.
  • Full global coverage (1.7 GB in a very compressed state; this will not realistically open without subsetting), with additional layers at https://zenodo.org/record/3939050#.X67ebWhKj8A.
  • After import you can save an a MICRODEM DEM, and the program will remember what it is and open faster
