High-Resolution Fuel Map Dataset for Southern Mediterranean Europe (ZAFM Europe v1.0, EPSG:4326)

High-Resolution Fuel Map Dataset for Southern Mediterranean Europe (ZAFM Europe v1.0, EPSG:4326) Overview ZAFM Europe v1.0 provides high-resolution (~10 m) wildfire fuel model rasters for Southern Mediterranean Europe generated with the Zone Adaptive Fuel Mapping (ZAFM) methodology. Rasters store categorical fuel model codes (Scott & Burgan) intended for wildfire spread modelling workflows. Geographic coverage Countries included (separate rasters): Spain (ESP), Portugal (PRT), France (FRA), Italy (ITA), Greece (GRC) Technical details CRS: EPSG:4326 (WGS84)Format: Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG)Datatype: UInt16NoData value: 0Compression: LZWBands: 1Pixel size: 0.000083333333333° × 0.000083333333333° (~6–10 m depending on latitude) How to cite (dataset) Sánchez, P., González, I., Carrillo, C., Cortés, A., Suppi, R., & Margalef, T.
