Hi Joe,

You're correct! This is the high resolution (1-meter) 6-class product that
Earth Define developed as part of the 2015 NOAA Coastal-Change Analysis
Program land cover update. The map you see on the ED website is the map we
have in-house, and it is excellent (for a purely automated product). It
currently has licensing restrictions and therefore isn't publicly
available, but there are a few options that the State can explore to uplift
the license (at a very low price per square mile) and increase the thematic
resolution. Just talk to us. We're doing this in a few other geographies
and can showcase some of those products if folks are interested. We're also
in the midst of generating some derived 10-meter and 30-meter products
based on the 1-meter data that will be available soon after the government
re-opens. These derived products include a few more classes and are more
similar to existing C-CAP land cover products from prior years.

If anyone has any questions about any of this, please don't hesitate to get
in touch.

Cheers,
Jamie
