GHS-BUILT R2018A - GHS built-up grid, derived from Landsat, multitemporal (1975-1990-2000-2014) - OBSOLETE RELEASE

The data are organised in several datasets. The main product (GHS_BUILT_LDSMT_GLOBE_R2018A_3857_30) is a multitemporal built-up grid (built-up classes: 1975, 1990, 2000, 2014 epoch), which has been produced at high resolution (30m). Multi-temporal built-up area classification map: 0 = no data; 1 = water surface; 2 = land no built-up in any epoch; 3 = built-up from 2000 to 2014 epochs; 4 = built-up from 1990 to 2000 epochs; 5 = built-up from 1975 to 1990 epochs; 6 = built-up up to 1975 epoch. Data organisation: VRT file (with GeoTIFF tiles) or GeoTIFF files; pyramids ArcGIS users of the 30-m product: *ESRI.vrt.file. Resolution: 30m. Projection: Spherical Mercator (EPSG:3857). The 30m grid has been used to derive additional layers per each epoch, offered at middle and low resolution (250m in Mollweide and 1km in Mollweide). Each dataset is distributed in a compressed ZIP, that contains TIF file with pyramids and documentation.
