Description: The Virginia Geographic Information Network (VGIN) and its partners have coordinated the development of a statewide Land Cover Dataset, improving land coverage data to assist localities in planning and implementing stormwater management programs. The Land Cover product leverages the Commonwealth's investment in the VBMP digital orthophotography and is focused on creating a consistent, statewide 1 meter digital land classification. Land Cover data extraction is being publicly provided back to local governments and state agencies in both raster and vector data formats.
