The Risk Data Hub collects, disaggregates, and harmonizes historical disaster loss data from multiple sources to create a curated European dataset. Emphasis is placed on data standardization and alignment with open data frameworks, such as the Risk Data Librar...

The Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) produces new global spatial information, evidence-based analytics, and knowledge describing the human presence in the planet. The Joint Research Centre (JRC) and the Directorate General for Regional Development (DG REGI...

This dataset corresponds to global map of built-up areas expressed in terms of a probability grid at 10 m spatial resolution derived from a Sentinel-2 global image composite (GHS_composite_S2_L1C_2017-2018_GLOBE_R2020A_UTM_10_v1_0) for reference year 2018. It ...

ESM_BUILT_VHR2018_Europe_R2020_3035_02 is a spatial raster dataset that is mapping human settlements in Europe, based on Copernicus Very High Resolution optical coverage for reference year 2018. ESM 2018 exploits the Copernicus VHR_IMAGE_2018 dataset made of ...

GHS-composite-S2 R2020A corresponds to global cloud-free pixel based composite created from the Sentinel-2 data archive (Level L1C) available in Google Earth Engine for the period January 2017- December 2018. GHS_composite_S2_L1C_2017-2018_GLOBE_R2020A: pixel...

The European Settlement Map data is a spatial raster dataset that is mapping human settlements in Europe based on Copernicus Very High Resolution optical coverage for reference year 2015 (VHR_IMAGE_2015). It follows-up on the previous ESM_2012 derived from 2.5...

Multi-temporal information layers on footprint and metadata of Landsat scenes used in the production of GHS BUILT grid R2018A. The scenes are organised in imge data collections, and were prepared by the Global Land Survey (GLS1975, GLS1990, GLS2000) and by th...

Multi-temporal information layer on the presence of built-up surfaces derived from global Landsat satellite data collected from 1975 to 2014, at the native spatial resolution varying from 80 meters (Landsat MSS sensor), 30 meters (Landsat TM sensor), and 15/30...

Information layer on the presence of built-up surfaces derived from global Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite data, collected during 2016. The native spatial resolution of the data is 20 meters with a pixel spacing of 10 meters and dual polari...
