Description
Post-deforestation Land Use in the Tropics (PLUTo)
PLUTo is a dataset of post-deforestation land uses across the tropics. It consists of locations deforested between 2000 and 2020 with known post-deforestation land use. To identify deforestation, we use the Tropical Moist Forest (TMF) dataset.
