Resumen
[EN]This dataset contains an integrated forest, climate and satellite-derived database for Spain based on Spanish National Forest Inventory, Copernicus and NASA data. It characterizes the evolution of Spanish forests through plots distributed across the national territory that have been inventoried on four occasions from 1986 to the present.
Descripción
The dataset consists of a single relational database organized into a set of core tables, catalog tables and a metadata table. The database implements a normalized schema designed to represent spatially explicit forest inventory, climatic and satellite-derived information for the Spanish territory.
This dataset integrates and derives from multiple third-party open-access datasets. The authors have performed original data curation, harmonization, and derivation, resulting in a new, value-added dataset. The original data sources listed below, in accordance with their respective attribution requirements.
