GCI30: Global Cropping Intensity at 30m resolution

This global cropping intensity product is the first 30m resolution cropping intensity dataset covering global extent. Based on the reconstructed time series of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) from multiple satellite images including Landsat-8, Sentinel-2 and MODIS, 30-m planetary-scale pixel by pixel cropping intensity products were generated by enumerating the total number of valid cropping cycles using a binary crop phenophase profile indicating growing and non-growing periods. The total number of valid cropping cycles were also divided by 3 (three years from 2016 to 2018) to retrieve the average cropping intensity. Based on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud computing platform, we implemented our algorithm across the globe to the global cropping intensity products.
