Seems to be quite hard to find such data. Ofter, input data are not available. If available, then one easily gets things like the land-sea mask. "Land use" ist hard. I found land use NetCDF files in our data archive but none in GRIB. We have a few "land cover" datasets. Maybe that's the same? https://cera-www.dkrz.de/WDCC/ui/cerasearch/entry?acronym=C2_NCEP_CO_LAND
