The Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium has several different ways to access data, including a web-visualization tool. Users have the ability of several different download methods on the viewer: drawing a rectangle, drawing a polygon, entering GeoJSON information, and uploading a shapefile.
