This repository provides the source code used to produce the follow Global Pasture Watch products (2000–2022+):
- GGC-30m: Global grassland class and extent maps at 30m
- GLD-1km: Global livestock density maps at 1km
- GSVH-30m: Global short vegetation height maps at 30m
- GGPP-30m: Global gross primary productivity maps at 30m
The reference samples, ML models and additional datasets are publicly available in Zenodo:
- Grassland reference samples based on visual interpretation of VHR imagery (2000–2022)
- Global machine learning model for prediction of cultivated and natural/semi-natural grassland
- Grassland sampling design derived by Feature Space Coverage Sampling (FSCV) at 1-km spatial resolution
- Integrated Approach to Global Land Use and Land Cover Reference Data Harmonization
The webinars organized by the initiative are publicly available:
- Global Pasture Watch: Mapping & Monitoring Global Grasslands and Livestock
- Grassland Mapping & Monitoring: A Focus on Latin America
The softwares and libraries produced / maintained in the context of the initiative are publicly available:
This work is conducted by WRI, OpenGeoHub Foundation, LAPIG/UFG, IIASA and iDiv and has received funding from Land and Carbon Lab through the Global Pasture Watch.
