The MRLC Consortium is a partnership of Federal agencies (http://www.mrlc.gov), \nconsisting of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the \nU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. Forest Service \n(USFS), the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the Bureau of Land Management \n(BLM), and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). One of the primary goals of the project is to \ngenerate a current, consistent, seamless, and accurate National Land Cover Database (NLCD) circa 2001 for the United \nStates at medium spatial resolution. For a detailed definition and discussion on MRLC and the NLCD 2001 products, \nrefer to Homer and others (2004), (see: http://www.mrlc.gov/mrlc2k.asp).\n\t\t\nThe NLCD 2001 was created by partitioning the United States into mapping zones. A total of 68 mapping zones (see https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/file/get/631405cad34e36012efa3299?name=browsenlcd01-mappingzones.jpg), were delineated within the conterminous United States \nbased on ecoregion and geographical characteristics, edge-matching features, and the size requirement of Landsat \nmosaics. Mapping zones encompass the whole or parts of several states. Questions about the NLCD mapping zones \ncan be directed to the NLCD 2001 Land Cover Mapping Team at the USGS/EROS, Sioux Falls, SD (605) 594-6151 \nor mrlc@usgs.gov.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9WZ8CXH", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.77113ab7-dba8-445d-bb7a-c3a7d273b652.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_77113ab7-dba8-445d-bb7a-c3a7d273b652", "keyword": ["NAWQA", "NLCD", "National Land Cover Data Set", "National Water-Quality Assessment", "USGS:77113ab7-dba8-445d-bb7a-c3a7d273b652", "environment", "geoscientificInformation", "inland waters", "inlandWaters", "land cover", "land use"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-123.305923, 22.736542, -97.818040, 39.874012", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "National Land Cover Database 2001 (NLCD01) Tile 3, Southwest United States: NLCD01_3"}
