Global PALSAR-2/PALSAR Forest/Non-Forest Map
The global forest/non-forest map (FNF) is generated by classifying the SAR image (backscattering coefficient) in the global 25m resolution PALSAR-2/PALSAR SAR mosaic so that strong and low backscatter pixels are assigned as "forest" and "non-forest", respectively. Here, "forest" is defined as the natural forest with ... sar forest landcover classification jaxa eroc -
Global Forest Canopy Height, 2005
This dataset represents global tree heights based on a fusion of spaceborne-lidar data (2005) from the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) and ancillary geospatial data. See Simard et al. (2011) for details. forest tree canopy height glas geophysical -
Global Forest Cover Change (GFCC) Tree Cover Multi-Year Global 30m
The Landsat Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) tree cover layers contain estimates of the percentage of horizontal ground in each 30-m pixel covered by woody vegetation greater than 5 meters in height. The dataset is available for four epochs centered on the years 2000, 2005, 2010 ... forest landsat-derived glcf umd nasa -
Primary humid tropical forests
Primary humid tropical forests provide numerous global ecosystem services, but are under continuing threat of clearing from economic drivers. To facilitate national land use planning and balancing the goals of economic development and maintenance of ecosystem services, a primary humid tropical forest map was created ... global forest landsat-derived umd glad -
Hansen Global Forest Change v1.7 (2000-2019)
Results from time-series analysis of Landsat images in characterizing global forest extent and change. The 'first' and 'last' bands are reference multispectral imagery from the first and last available years for Landsat spectral bands 3, 4, 5, and 7. Reference composite imagery represents median observations ... forest geophysical landsat-derived umd hansen
