Landscape features spatial dataset for Brandenburg, Germany

The dataset was created by integrating and classifying spatial information from multiple publicly available geodata sources, in accordance with the LF typology proposed by Czúcz, Baruth, Terres et al. (2022). 

The dataset includes features extracted and filtered from- Habitat register (areas) (with a size filter applied to exclude patches >0.5 ha)- Digital(field) block register (CAP-eligible agricultural area)- Digital landscape model

This dataset is provided in SHP format and can be opened with most GIS software (e.g., QGIS, ArcGIS) or loaded into R using packages like `sf`.

The notebook detailing the creation of this dataset is listed as a related resource.
