The GFSAD is a NASA-funded project to provide high-resolution global
cropland data and their water use that contributes towards global food
security in the twenty-first century. The GFSAD products are derived
through multi-sensor remote sensing data (e.g., Landsat, MODIS, AVHRR),
secondary data, and field-plot data and aims at documenting cropland
dynamics.
At a nominal 1km scale, V0.1 provides the spatial distribution of a
disaggregated five-class global cropland extent map derived from four
major studies: Thenkabail et al. (2009a, 2011), Pittman et al. (2010),
Yu et al. (2013), and Friedl et al. (2010). V1.0 is a 5-class product that
provides information on global cropland extent and irrigated versus rainfed
cropping. There is no crop type or crop type dominance information. Cropping
intensity (single, double, triple, and continuous crops) can be obtained for
every pixel using time-series remote sensing data. The GFSAD1000 nominal
2010 product was created with data from 2007 to 2012.

It classifies land into six categories, ranging from non-croplands to various types of irrigated and rainfed croplands. Users can access the data via Google Earth Engine, utilizing an `ee.Image` snippet. The data can be visualized with a color palette based on landcover classes, supporting studies on cropland dynamics and water use.\n"]]
