AgriBase™ Derived Products
Our AgriBase™ derived products, Enhanced LCDB2 and Meshblocks give you more specific representation of land cover.
Enhanced LCDB2
AgriBase™ Enhanced LCDB2 embeds real land use information within broad pastoral classes of the land cover database 2 (LCDB2), giving you more specific representation of land cover.

The above example LCDB2 reports an area of high production grassland (green), short-rotation cropland (blue) and orchard and other perennial crops (purple). |
The above illustrates AgriBase Enhanced LCDB2, which provides further land use details for high production exotic grassland, including beef cattle farming, deer farming, sheep farming, mixed sheep and beef farming, pig farming, ostrich farming and horses all shown in various shades of green. Similarly, various shades of purple show further detail for orchard and perennial crops including pip fruit, stone fruit, and market gardening. |
PricingStarts at NZ$1,200 + GST for those customers that have already purchased the LCDB2 dataset from Terralink, or NZ$1,900 + GST for those that require AsureQuality to coordinate the purchase of an LCDB2 dataset/license. Available in national coverage version only. |
