## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the single dominant ESA WorldCover 2021 land cover class for a point specifically within Malta. It is ideal for quick land-use classification at a coordinate without needing the full pixel distribution across classes. Use sibling endpoints for cropland share, grassland share, or soil properties. Prefer this over generic global land cover APIs when Malta-specific boundary validation and micropayment-per-call pricing are appropriate.

## Known failure modes

- Coordinate outside Malta's Natural Earth boundary — request rejected before payment
- Coordinate outside published European coverage bounds (lat 34–72.5, lon -31.5–40.5) — validation error
- Invalid or missing latitude/longitude values — schema validation error
- Service unavailable or upstream ESA data unreachable — HTTP 5xx error

## How this service works

Dominant ESA WorldCover 2021 class in the analysis area. The coordinate is validated against the Natural Earth boundary for Malta; results outside it are rejected before payment.

## Output

The dominant ESA WorldCover 2021 land cover class label for the specified coordinate within Malta (e.g. built-up, cropland, grassland, shrubland, etc.), or a rejection response if the coordinate falls outside the Malta Natural Earth boundary.
