2017 China Biodiversity Footprint and Species Spatial Data

This dataset contains three comprehensive collections of biodiversity data for China in 2017: Provincial Biodiversity Footprint Data, Species Spatial Data, and Taxonomic Biodiversity Footprint Data. The data includes spatial information for various species groups including amphibians, birds, mammals, and reptiles, as well as biodiversity footprint analysis across different economic sectors. (1) China’s raw species spatial data, sourced from the IUCN, stored in the file “2017 China Species Spatial Data” in shapefile format. (2) China’s biodiversity footprint data for 19 economic sectors across 30 provinces in 2017, provided in two versions: one including 446 threatened and near-threatened species, and another comprising 352 species excluding NT species, stored in the file “2017 China Provincial Biodiversity Footprint Data” in shapefile format. (3) China’s biodiversity footprint data for 4 taxonomic group (mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds) across 30 provinces in 2017, provided in two versions: one including 446 threatened and near-threatened species, and another comprising 352 species excluding NT species, stored in the file “2017 China Taxonomic Biodiversity Footprint Data” in shapefile format. (4) A procedural demonstration of matrix operations with detailed algorithmic steps for specific species, included in the file “An example detailing the computational steps for specific species” in PDF format.
