GFSAD30 Figure C1
Detailed Description
An aggregated three class global cropland extent map at nominal 1-km based on four major studies: Thenkabail et al. (2009a, 2011), Pittman et al. (2010), Yu et al. (2013) and Friedl et al. (2010). Class 1 is total cropland extent based on pixels with 100% cropland cover (2.3 billion hectares). Class2 and Class3 have minor fractions of croplands.

Global Food-and-Water Security-support Analysis Data (GFSAD)
The GFSAD is a NASA funded project (2023-2028) to provide highest-resolution global cropland data and their water use that contributes towards global food-and-water security in the twenty-first century. The GFSAD products are derived through multi-sensor remote sensing data (e.g., Landsat-series, Sentinel-series, MODIS, AVHRR), secondary data, and field-plot data and aims at documenting cropland...
