Forest horizontal structure 2012 based on Copernicus HRL Forest products - version 1 Jan. 2021
Description
This metadata refers to the dataset providing information about the horizontal structure measures in 2012 by the relation between the forest extension and the core forest extension within 1km grid cell covering the EEA38 member states and the United Kingdom. This measure on forest horizontal structure derives of the spatial pattern distribution and it is a proxy of forest spatial integrity and compactness.
The horizontal structure indicator values range between 0-100. High values indicate high compactness whereas low values define forest with a lower interior habitat quality.
The input data is the Forest Area 2012 based on different Copernicus HRL Forest products at 100m spatial resolution. The core forest extension is described as forest grid cells that are relatively far from the forest-non forest boundary calculated by the Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA) module of GuidosToolbox (GTB).
