Description
Data Description
These datasets were generated from the research article "The overlooked contribution of trees outside forests to tree cover and woody biomass across Europe".
Here we publish aggregated version of canopy cover and height map, and original biomass map at 30m resolution. The biomass map are calculated from the canopy cover and height maps using allometric equations.
The original canopy cover and height maps are derived from 3m resolution PlanetScope imagery (research license with Planet Labs Inc) in 2019, are available on request sliu@ign.ku.dk or martin.brandt@mailbox.org.
