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

I am guessing that this might be the company NOAA used to create landcover mapping for the northeastern states? Maybe Jamie can let us know if I am right.
Regardless it looks like it might be a good tool for some of our GIS stakeholders!
Have a THRILLING Tuesay!!
