Rural Land Use Netherlands (LGN)
Description
LGN is a grid file that shows the Dutch land use with a spatial resolution of 5m. The stock has dozens of land use classes in which the main agricultural crops, forest, water, nature and urban classes are distinguished.
An LGN update reflecting the land use of the previous reference year shall be delivered before 1 September each year. For example, the land use stock (LGN2024) for the reference year 2024 will be delivered by 1 September 2025. The nature classification is carried out every three years (in LGN2021, LGN2024, LGN2027, etc).
The different versions of LGN do not always have the same classes. An overview of changes between versions can be found at https://lgn.nl/documentation/changes-per-version.
All LGN versions from LGN3 can be viewed at https://lgn.nl/base map and downloaded from https://lgn.nl/files. The most recent version of LGN is published on PDOK as WMS.
