Global forest cover dynamics

Annual time-series on forest canopy densities over nearly three decades

Details

We fused multiple remote sensing datasets mapped at different spatial and temporal resolutions to construct a consistent, annual, and gap-free time-series on tree canpy densities starting in 1992. These data are modelled with samples completed from Global Forest Change dataset.
