Forest Area 2015 based on Copernicus HRL Forest products - version 1, Oct. 2018
Description
This data set shows the European forest area in 2015 at 100m spatial resolution, covering EEA39 countries. It is based on Copernicus HRL forest products at 20m spatial resolution and complies with the FAO forest definition (i.e. minimum mapping unit of 0.5 ha, minimum coverage of 10% and excluding land that is predominantly under agricultural or urban land use).
After the selection of those pixels identified as forest by the HRL forest products and also compliant with FAO criteria, the forest area dataset at 100m was computed as a Boolean product (i.e. forest / non-forest). The value 1 (forest area) correspond to the pixels where forest is the major coverage; otherwise the pixel value is 0 (non-forest area).
