Description
This repository contains the final outputs from the global Foodscape mapping exercise. In this project we aimed to identify broad homologues of foodscape classes, comparable in a minimum set of biophysical and management characteristics, would help to design possible interventions and leverage points for more sustainable agriculture.
Provided are maps in spatial geotiff format (.tif) which can be opened in any typical GIS software such as ArcGIC or QGIS. The Resolution is 0.5' degree (WGS 84 or longitude-latitude projection). Both the foodscape map (Foodscapes_combinedGEOTIFF_final.tif) and a reclassified intensity map (Foodscapes_combinedGEOTIFF_intensity.tif) are provided. Accompanied with the tif files are .clr and .qml files, both of which provide layout information on colours used for each code combination in the global maps. The .qml file will be automatically loaded when opening the layer in QGIS.
In addition, in the Microsoft Excel sheet "Foodscapes_combinedLEGEND_final.xlsx" a legend with qualitative description and label of each class is provided.
If you use this layer in any way, please cite this repository and the describing preprint.
