Digital polygon dataset of Land capability of Lamjung district, Nepal. The dataset includes details of potential land uses, soil type, drainage conditions etc. This dataset is created using 1:50,000 scale Land capability map published by Land Resource Mapping Project (LRMP), Department of Survey, Nepal 1984.

Digital data of Land use of RDT Centre of Bhutan. This dataset is prepared by ICIMOD based on ground survey 2008.

Digital data of Land use of Nepal. This dataset is created using Land use Maps of 50000 scale published by Land Resource Mapping Project (LRMP), Dept. of Survey Kathmandu, Nepal in 1984.

Digital data of Land use of Kayar Khola Watershed, Chitwan, Nepal. This dataset is created using Topographic sheet data at scale of 25,000/50,000, of 1995 acquired from National Geographic Information Infrastructure Project (NGIIP), Dept. of Survey, Kathmandu, Nepal and verified during 2010 field survey. The data was prepared for the Reducing Emission from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) Pilot Project. This is a joint project of ICIMOD with Asian Network for Sustainable Agriculture and Bio-resources (ANSAB) and Federation of Community for Forest Users of Nepal (FECOFUN) funded by NORAD.

Digital dataset of Agriculture Cover of Central Karakoram National Park(CKNP) area, Pakistan. This dataset is extracted from land cover dataset of 2010 created from 30m resolution LandSat imagery of 2010.

Land cover and its change analysis across the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region is realized as an urgent need to support diverse issues of environmental conservation. This study presents the first and most complete national land cover database of Nepal prepared using public domain Landsat TM data of 2000 and replicable methodology. The study estimated that 41.64% of Nepal is covered by forests and 27.77% by agriculture. Physiographic regions wise forest fragmentation analysis revealed specific conservation requirements for productive hill and mid mountain regions. Comparative analysis with Landsat TM based global land cover product showed difference of the order of 30-60% among different land cover classes stressing the need for significant improvements for national level adoption. The online web based land cover validation tool is developed for continual improvement of land cover product. The potential use of the data set for national and regional level sustainable land use planning strategies and meeting several global commitments also highlighted.
