1-km Global Arable Land Fraction (GALF) in 2000, 2010, and 2020

Global Arable Land Fraction (GALF) was produced at a spatial resolution of 1 km by merging five land cover products: MODIS, ESA CCI, GlobeLand30, GLAD, and GLC_FCS30D. The dataset was generated for the years 2000, 2010, and 2020, representing the world’s first global maps specifically dedicated to arable land—defined as areas under temporary agricultural crops (with multiple cropping counted once), temporary meadows for mowing or pasture, and land temporarily fallow. Detailed information on data processing methods and validation results is provided in the accompanying document GALF_readme.pdf.
