The maps cover the entire open landscape, i.e. the agriculturally used area (UAA) and e.g. uncultivated areas. The map was derived from dense time series of Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Landsat 8 and additional environmental data. Map production is based on the methods described in <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2021.112831">Blickensd&ouml;rfer et al. (2022</a>).</p> <p>The map extent covers all areas in Germany that are defined as agricultural land, small woody features, heathland or peatland according to ATKIS Basis-DLM 2020 (Geobasisdaten: &copy; GeoBasis-DE / BKG (2020)). Post-processing of the maps included a sieve filter as well as a ruleset for the reduction of non-plausible areas using the Basis-DLM. The final post-processing step comprises the aggregation of the gridded data to homogeneous objects (fields) based on the approach that is described in <a href="https://doi.org/10.1109/ACCESS.2021.3105903">Tetteh et al. (2021)</a>.</p> <p>Data are available on request either in gridded (raster) format or in aggregated (vector) format.
