District-level Agricultural Residue Burning Emissions (DARBE) in India 2011-2020 v1.2

The data provides satellite-based estimates of agricultural burned area, crop residue dry matter burned and agricultural residue burning emissions across India from 2011-2020. It also includes visualisation tools used in the emission estimation and visualisation of the data for the reader's reference. References: 1.
