SBTN Land v2 - Land Environmental Assessment Factors (LEAFs)

This dataset contains Land Environmental Assessment Factors (LEAFs) to be used as part of version 2 of SBTN Land, including SOC, soil erosion, and terrestrial acidification factors. Each land quality indicator contain 3 sets of factors: rasters, in the original resolution; geopackages, summarizing factors at ecoregion (preferred), sub-country, and country level; csv, containing mean, median, and standard deviations at the ecoregion, sub-country, and country level.

LEAFs are intended to be used as part of SBTN Land v2 methods, including the target setting method and the accounging guidelines (AGILE), which can be found here.

The datasets will be accompained by a journal publication and github repository, describing the methods and data needed for each indicator, as well as a python implementation of each model.

Geopackages contain 3 layers: "geometry_layer", which contain the geometries, the leaf layer, called leafs_{level} (e.g. leafs_country), which contain the leaf values, and a "metadata" layer, containing the metadata.
