[Qgis-user] Importing Cropland Data Layer

[Emily Wine]

Hi everyone!

I am completely new to QGIS (and mapping in general), and I can't get my
layers to line up.

* QGIS Version: 3.2.1-BonnStandalone-installerWindows 10 64-bit*

*All of my layers are in the USA Contiguous Albers Equal Area projection.*

Currently, I have three layers:
Site Coordinates
World Imagery layer from ESRI
Cropland Data Layer (CDL) from USDA-NASS CropScape

My coordinates line up perfectly with the World Imagery layer. However, the
CDL is floating somewhere out in the universe and won't line up.

CDL Extent:
48885.0000000000000000,2818725.0000000000000000 :
117585.0000000000000000,2930685.0000000000000000

I downloaded the CDL as a zipped file containing a .tif and a .vat.dbf.tif
file.
I unzipped the file and uploaded it to QGIS as a .tif file.

Is it possible that the georeferencing for the .tif file is encoded in the
.vat.dbf.tif file? How do I import the Cropland Data Layer to QGIS?

Thanks,

Emily
