Note that the mapping from landcover to materials is performed in Materials/base/landclass-mapping.xml, and currently only maps CORINE raster landclasses. If you have another landcover source (e.g. the US NLCD), you will need to use your GIS (Grass, QGIS) to convert them such that the raster uses the correct landclass indexes. | Note that the mapping from landcover to materials is performed in Materials/base/landclass-mapping.xml, and currently only maps CORINE raster landclasses.
