Not exactly downloading, but you can use their OGC services (WMS and WMTS) to get data on your GIS. Check here:

Right Tiago Tome,

it id not exactly downloading.

True, Anand.

But depending on the intended applications, WMS/WMTS may suffise.

Dear Shonam,

You can download LULC data at 1:250,000 freely from the Bhuvan website. You have to register first and then place the order. As soon as you place the order you will be requested to upload a MoU. Once the MoU is signed and uploaded the dataset is made available to you in a few days!

Indranil Mondal Hi Indranil. I have two questions.

1. The MoU specifically says that the institute should be in India. But I am in a German university. Will I be still able to download it?

2. What is the format of the downloaded data? I am specifically interested in shape file.

Thanks in advance!

Dear Shonam,

I don't know whether you need LULC for a specific year.

In case you're interested in LULC of India during 1985, 1995, 2005, you may look at this site.

https://daac.ornl.gov/cgi-bin/dsviewer.pl?ds_id=1336

The data is in TIFF format and can readily be used. But please cite the actual authors, if you're using it. (Full paper: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/7/3/2401)

Dear Shonam Sharma,

Data may download through WMS/WMTS in ArcGIS and QGIS and you can follow this video link to get data from Bhuvan.

Ya, it is possible to download through WMS/WMTS in ArcGIS and QGIS .

What is meant by WMS/WMTS in GIS dear R. Siddi Raju,

Thank you Shonam Sharma Rajasekhar M. R.Siddi Raju for the valuable discussion.

You can add WMS or WMTS layer in the GIS interface. Once the layer is added, it needs to be exported in a .tif format. Now you have an image with you. Next step is to create a training sample as is done in normal image classification. You can refer to the LULC color scheme provided with the wms layer at the Bhuvan portal. Once the traning sample is ready you can run a classification algorithm and obtain final classified raster and use it for further analysis.

Yes, it is possible to download through WMS/WMTS in ArcGIS and QGIS .

I want cadastral

Can anybody please tell me how to place order of LULC from Bhuvan NRSC?
