Global Landside Clustering of Aquaculture Ponds Distribution Acquired from Dense Time-Series Sentinel-2 Images by Google Earth Engine

This dataset reveals the global distribution pattern of landside clustering aquaculture ponds (LCAP) from a spatial perspective for the first time. It was derived from 4,015,054 tiles of the 10-m Sentinel-2 time-series images collected throughout 2020. The total area of global LCAP was estimated at 55,337.03 km2. Accuracy verification revealed that the Omission Error and Commission Error of the data is 7.51% and 16.69% respectively. We provide this dataset in ESRI shapefile format (.zip), which can be opened by ArcGIS. We invite you to download and utilize this dataset and recommend citing the following two references.
