The @USGeologicalSurvey National Land Cover Database (NLCD) informs the study of land change from natural or man-made disasters. Note the huge swath of shrubland that gave way to grass between 2011 and 2013 after large wildfires burned through Nevada's northern border. By 2019, small patches of shrubland begin to reappear.

For the first time, we're releasing a high-resolution, global land cover map, built in partnership with Impact Observatory and Microsoft in ArcGIS Living Atlas. The map uses European Space Agency - ESA Sentinel-2 satellite imagery, and leverages deep learning AI. Freely available in ArcGIS Online. Explore the map: http://ow.ly/kmnE50FhTqp | Esri
