BSRLC-U: A tri-annual urban built-up types for the Baltic Sea Region at 10 m from 2000 to 2021

Baltic Sea Region Land Cover Urban (BSRLC-U) is tri-annual land cover mapping (10 m) dataset in Europe from 2000 to 2021. The maps contain detailed information of urban built-up classes: 1) Residential buildings, 2) Industrial buildings, 3) Open spaces and 4) Non built-up. BSRLC-U is a complementary dataset to the existing Baltic Sea Region Land Cover Plus (BSRLC+) dataset, which contain detailed information of 18 land cover (LC) types, including 9 crop types and 2 peat bog types Input data : Optical multi-temporal remote sensing imageries (Landsat 5 (TM) / 7 (ETM+) / 8 (OLI) and Sentinel 2 (A / B ) from 1999 to 2022. Data is processed to surface reflectance and tiled into datacube structure using Framework for Operational Radiometric Correction for Environmental monitoring - FORCE. This dataset contains: 1_preview.png: Preview map (2021) BSRLCU_{year}.tif: Tri-annual (center year) map data (10 m) in GeoTIFF format (projection ETRS89 / EPSG:3035) style.qml: Map style to be used in QGIS Built-up classes codes: 1: Residential buildings 2: Industrial, commercial buildings 3: Open spaces, roads, railways 4: Non-built-up 127: Nodata Publication and method: <Under review> Funding This datatset is created in the frame of the Interdisciplinary Research Center for the Baltic Sea Region Research (IFZO) of University of Greifswald, Germany, and the research project Fragmented Transformations, which is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (FKZ 01UC2102).
