EuroCrops

EuroCrops is a dataset collection combining all publicly available self-declared crop reporting datasets from countries of the European Union. The project is funded by the German Space Agency at DLR on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK). This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

Right now EuroCrops only includes vector data, but stay tuned for a version that includes satellite imagery!

For any questions, please refer to our FAQs or use the Discussions/Issues to reach out to us.

Background

Disclaimer: The Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics 3 (NUTS3) region, which we added by hand, is just an approximate assignment of a crop parcel to a region. It might happen that a parcel is not correctly allocated to the right region or country. The NUTS3 attribute is only meant to be an aid for a meaningful spatial division of the dataset into training, validation and test sets.

Participating countries

Vector data download

The shapefiles of the countries are available via Sync&Share. They might be still some changes with the data in this folder, such as adding the NUTS3 region identifier to the parchels. Version-controlled and citable editions will be made available in near future over mediaTUM. Please also make sure to download the data for the countries individually, as there might be some loss otherwise.
