Rural land cover in Medellín

Explore Medellín rural land cover interpreted from 2021 orthophotography. Compare Corine Land Cover classes, rural districts and published area per polygon.

The municipal source contains 19,221 rural polygons and classifies up to level 4. This viewer gives verified level-three code names cross-checked against IDEAM’s official legend; level-four and current-use codes are not interpreted without a domain. Queries cover the nearby visible area and can be partial. Published area describes the full polygon, not its viewport intersection. Orthophotography is from 2021 and does not establish current cover.

How to use it

How to use the map

  1. Open the viewer with this theme’s first layer enabled. Search a neighborhood or enter coordinates as latitude, longitude.
  2. Enable other layers in the theme and zoom in. Detailed cadastral layers require a close scale to keep queries bounded.
  3. Select a feature on the map or in the Results list. Check its attributes, retrieval time and any partial-result notice.
  4. Choose a field and exact value to filter the layer. Export includes only received results, with attribution and dates; it does not download the whole municipality.

Sources, dates and limits

Each source’s verification date appears in the table. Retrieval time is not the data update date. Small city-wide layers use the full extent; larger layers depend on the visible area. Reference publications retain their original retrieval date. Each response contains up to 500 features and 2 MB. Reference publications load matching pages, up to 5,000 features and 8 MB per query. External services may return partial samples, identified in the viewer.
