About NLCD 2021 Point Land Cover
Run one small WMS GetFeatureInfo request against the verified queryable NLCD 2021 lower-48 layer. The service returns the raster value as PALETTE_INDEX, and that layer publishes its own value colormap, so the response carries the NLCD class code and label with it. A value the colormap does not define stays unlabeled. This is one approximately 30 m raster-pixel screen, not parcel overlap, area, change, zoning, wetlands, crop suitability, or developability.
⚠ The JSON response exposes PALETTE_INDEX, which is the NLCD class value on this layer; the label comes from that layer's own value colormap and holds for the 2021 lower-48 product only.
