swissTLMRegio Landcover
This API provides access to the Landcover topic of swissTLMRegio, a generalized topographic landscape model maintained by the Swiss Federal Office of Topography (swisstopo) as part of the Swiss Confederation's geospatial data offering. The dataset describes topographic land cover through a single feature class composed of polygons that together form a surface network; gaps and overlaps between polygons are permitted according to a defined overlay matrix. The data covers the whole of Switzerland at a regional (generalized) scale and can be used for land cover analysis, cartographic representation, and other geospatial applications requiring nationwide land cover information.The topic Landcover describes the topographic land cover. It consists of one feature class. The polygons build up a surface network, where gaps and overlays (according to the overlay matrix) are allowed.
