Description

Materials required to reproduce the analysis reported in the paper. 

Dec 17, 2025 Addition: The final IrrMapper training dataset from which points were extracted, Earth Engine raster information was exported, training tables built, and raster inference executed using https://github.com/dgketchum/EEMapper. Each land type has a shapefile (uncultivated, dryland agriculture, irrigated agriculture with year of irrigation, and wetlands), each of which has tens of thousands of polygons, providing a land cover estimate over hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.

Notes: There are shapefiles for 'dryland' (unirrigated crops) and 'fallow' (equipped but not irrigated for the year in the attribute table). We combine these into a single, unirrigated crops class for IrrMapper.
