Important Note : CLMS data access from the CDSE

The Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem (CDSE) is currently onboarding the CLMS products; this action will allow users to explore a full range of additional possibilities in data access, visualization and processing. The data ingestion process is expected to last until the end of 2025.

The list of products that are already onboarded can be found here (Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) – Documentation).

For information on how to view the data in the Copernicus Browser and access them using the Sentinel Hub API, please consult CLMS – Documentation.

Furthermore, the global datasets, while still being accessible from this portal, will be subject to substantial changes as regards to their alternative data access modes described above. In fact, these alternative access points will be fully migrated to the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem as of 1 September 2025. Detailed information on this migration can be found here (Global CLMS service migration notice — Copernicus Land Monitoring Service).

Please update your bookmarks

The portal of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service has undergone a restructuring.

A number of pages from the Global Land component have been integrated with the information from the other components to bring users a more harmonized and unified look and feel.

The Global Land data remains accessible via the existing access points:

For the global dynamic land cover:
- the land cover viewer with 20° tiles
- the global files and documentation on the Zenodo open science platform
- and the the Google Earth Engine ™ asset
The OpenSearch API for searching and downloading products, with sample code on its use in this notebook
The legacy data access portal with a tutorial on requesting geographic area subsets
The manifest files, text files to download the data in native format, convenient for downloading large sets of files automatically.
The Hot Spot area land cover change explorer
The portal on Groundbased Observations for Validation
The Global Land GitHub repository for more code examples

The table below helps you locate the Global Land web content on the new portal. Since you navigated to one of the old web pages listed below, please take the time to update your bookmark(s).
