Global mapping of tidal wetlands and adjacent environments using tidal analysis and multi-source Earth observations

This dataset is the first version of the global mapping of tidal wetlands and adjacent environment at a 30 m resolution centered on 2020. It also provides the calculated tidal information for each Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 image (cloud cover <10%) across the global coastal zone from 2019–2021. All methods are provided in detail in the accompanying ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing paper, Li et al., (2026)
