    • Raster map of CONUS forest change frequency from 1985-2020

    Metadata Updated: October 30, 2025

    We summarized annual remote sensing land cover classifications from the U.S. Geological Survey Land Cover Monitoring, Assessment, and Projection (LCMAP) annual time series to characterize forest change across the conterminous United States (CONUS) for the years 1985-2020. The raster output includes a map where each pixel is given an integer value based on the number of years in which it was classified as forest across the annual LCMAP time series. Values of 36 indicate the pixel was classified as forest across all years while a value of 0 indicates forests (tree cover) was never detected during the time series.
