I'm working with Corine Land Cover Map 2012 in QGIS. I can't find any information about the color code. Values range from 0 to 255 but there's no indication which value stands for which land cover type.

3there is also a spreadsheet here with the land cover codes and their corresponding RGB color codes as defined by the EEA and a CSV version here– dmciCommented Jun 14, 2017 at 13:40

@Mapperz those 14 categories do unfortunately not correspond to the colors in QGIS.– dadadingoCommented Jun 14, 2017 at 13:59

@dmci the spreadsheet seems to fit. Thanks. If you post your comment as an answer I will accept it to close the question.– dadadingoCommented Jun 14, 2017 at 14:01

There is a spreadsheet available here with the land cover codes and their corresponding RGB color codes as defined by the EEA and a CSV version here. For completeness, the clc codes and RGB color codes are included below.
You'll also find useful information about using CLC data in QGIS here.

I've created a color map for QGIS. In the raster properties use the render type "Singleband pseudocolor" and load the following color map from a text file:
