Description
Note: This dataset is not yet peer-reviewed. Please see this GitHub README for more information.
This image collection provides estimated per-pixel probability that the underlying area is occupied by the commodity. The probability estimates are provided at 10 meter resolution, and have been generated by a machine learning model. For details, see the technical documentation on the Forest Data Partnership repo on Github.
The primary purpose of this image collection is to support the mission of the Forest Data Partnership which aims to halt and reverse forest loss from commodity production by collaboratively improving global monitoring, supply chain tracking, and restoration.
This dataset currently covers the following countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Nigeria, Colombia, Brazil, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Ecuador, and Honduras.
This community data product is meant to evolve over time, as more data becomes available from the community and the model used to produce the maps continuously improves. If you would like to provide general feedback or additional datasets to improve these layers, please reach out through this form.
Limitations: Model output is limited to selected countries as calendar year composites for 2020 and 2023. Not all regions of the output are well represented by training data. Accuracy is reported in aggregate, and will vary geographically and with user chosen thresholds. Sensor artifacts based on data availability, cross-track nonuniformity, or cloudiness may be visually apparent in output probabilities and result in classification errors at some thresholds.
Note that this dataset has separate terms of use for commercial users of Earth Engine. Please see "Terms of Use" tab for details.
