Details
This dataset extends on the AVHRR-based VCF dataset developed by Hansen et al. (2016) by integrating MODIS and Copernicus data. We used a Random Forest model to translate these data into AVHRR-like layers, assuring their continuity past 2016 in support of multi-decadal monitoring applications.
