Land Cover Map 2025 (LCM2025 - 10m classified pixels, GB)
This is a 10 m pixel dataset representing the land surface of Great Britain, classified into 21 UKCEH land cover classes, based upon Biodiversity Action Plan broad habitats. It is a two-band raster in GeoTiff format. The first band gives the most likely land cover type; the second band gives the per-pixel probability of the land cover. A full description of this and all UKCEH LCM2025 products are available from the LCM2025 product documentation.

Useful for
- Use cases llm-inferred

Limitations
- Constraints llm-inferred
- Licence terms apply (non-open government licence per entry metadata) and citation is required · Covers Great Britain only; Northern Ireland is a separate record · Single-year 2025 snapshot, so no time series for change analysis · Per-class accuracy is in the product documentation, not in this record · Large 10 m raster; selected-area order by email may be needed rather than full download
