    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;This is the data repository accompanying Kruitwagen, L., Story, K., Friedrich, J., Byers, L., Skillman, S., &amp;amp; Hepburn, C. (2021) A global inventory of photovoltaic solar generating units, &lt;strong&gt;Nature, &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;forthcoming&lt;/em&gt;. This repository contains the training, cross-validation, test, and predicted data set as described in the publication. The contents of this repository are briefly summarised here, see the publication for further details.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Repository contents:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;trn_tiles.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;18,570&amp;nbsp;rectangular areas-of-interest used for sampling training patch data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;trn_polygons.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;36,882&amp;nbsp;polygons obtained from OSM in 2017&amp;nbsp;used to label training patches.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;cv_tiles.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;560&amp;nbsp;rectangular areas-of-interest used for sampling cross-validation data seeded from &lt;a href="https://www.wri.org/research/global-database-power-plants"&gt;WRI GPPDB&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;cv_polygons.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;6,281 polygons corresponding to all PV solar generating units present in cv_tiles.geojson at the end of 2018.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;test_tiles.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;122 rectangular regions-of-interest used for building the test set.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;test_polygons.geojson: &lt;/em&gt;7,263 polygons corresponding to all utility-scale (&amp;gt;10kW) solar generating units present in test_tiles.geojson at the end of 2018.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;predicted_polygons.geojson:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;68,661 polygons corresponding to predicted polygons in global deployment, capturing the status of deployed photovoltaic solar energy generating capacity at the end of 2018.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
