Available data for gross domestic product (GDP) and population density are useful for defining divisions in socio-economic gradients across Europe, since economic power and human population pressure are recognised as two of the most critical factors causing ecosystem changes. To overcome both the limitations in data availability and in the distortions caused by using administrative regions, we decided to base the socio-economic dimension on an economic density indicator, defined as the income generated per square kilometre (EUR km-2), which can be mapped at a 1km2 spatial resolution. Economic density forms an integrative indicator that is based on two key drivers that were identified above: economic power and human population pressure. The indicator, which has been used to rank countries by their level of development, can be considered a crude measure for impacts on the environment caused by economic activity. An economic density map (EUR km-2) at 1 km2 spatial resolution was constructed by multiplying economic power (EUR person-1) with population density (person km-2). Subsequent logarithmic divisions resulted in an aggregated map of four economic density zones. Although the map has a fine spatial resolution it has to be realised that they form a spatial disaggregation of coarser census statistics. Importantly, the finer resolution discerns regional gradients in human activity that are required for many environmental studies, whilst broad gradients in economic activity is also treated consistently across Europe. GDP and population density data used were for the year 2001. The dataset consists of GeoTiff files of the economic density map and the four economic density zones.

This dataset contains the interpolated values of bird density and bird flight speed (N-S and E-W) resulting from the methodology presented in [reference].The methodology is explained in less detail at rafnuss-postdoc.github.io/BMM. The resulting interpolation is a probability distribution (define the probability of each value to occurs). Only the median, quantile 10 and 90 are given in this file.
The spatio-temporal grid has a resolution of 0.2° in latitude (43°-68°) and longitude (-5°-30°) and 15 minutes in time (19 September to 10 October 2016), resulting in 127x176x2017 nodes. Over this large data cube, the estimation are only computed at the nodes located (1) over land, (2) within 200km of the nearest radar and (3) during nighttime.
The same dataset can be visualised on a dedicated web interface: www.bmm.raphaelnussbaumer.com and data can be queried on a API (documentation).
The csv file is structured as a table with the following columns:
This dataset contains the modeling results GIS data (maps) of the study “Sustainable Human Population Density in Western Europe between 560.000 and 360.000 years ago” by Rodríguez et al. (2022). The NPP data (npp.zip) was computed using an empirical formula (the Miami model) from palaeo temperature and palaeo precipitation data aggregated for each timeslice from the Oscillayers dataset (Gamisch, 2019), as defined in Rodríguez et al. (2022, in review). The Population densities file (pop_densities.zip) contains the computed minimum and maximum population densities rasters for each of the defined MIS timeslices. With the population density value Dc in logarithmic form log(Dc). The Species Distribution Model (sdm.7z) includes input data (folder /data), intermediate results (folder /work) and results and figures (folder /results). All modelling steps are included as an R project in the folder /scripts. The R project is subdivided into individual scripts for data preparation (1.x), sampling procedure (2.x), and model computation (3.x). The habitat range estimation (habitat_ranges.zip) includes the potential spatial boundaries of the hominin habitat as binary raster files with 1=presence and 0=absence. The ranges rely on a dichotomic classification of the habitat suitability with a threshold value inferred from the 5% quantile of the presence data. The habitat suitability (habitat_suitability.zip) is the result of the Species Distribution Modelling and describes the environmental suitability for hominin presence based on the sites considered in this study. The values range between 0=low and 1=high suitability. The dataset includes the mean (pred_mean) and standard deviation (pred_std) of multiple model runs.

The Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) project is supported by European Commission, Joint Research Center and Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy. The GHSL produces new global spatial information, evidence-based analytics, and knowledge describing the human presence in the planet.
The GHSL relies on the design and implementation of new spatial data mining technologies allowing to process automatically and extract analytics and knowledge from large amount of heterogeneous data including: global, fine-scale satellite image data streams, census data, and crowd sources or volunteering geographic information sources. Spatial data reporting objectively and systematically about the presence of population and built-up infrastructures are necessary for any evidence-based modelling or assessing of i) human and physical exposure to threats as environmental contamination and degradation, natural disasters and conflicts, ii) impact of human activities on ecosystems, and iii) access to resources.
This spatial raster dataset depicts the distribution and density of residential population, expressed as the number of people per cell. Resident population from censuses for year 2011 provided by Eurostat were disaggregated from source zones to grid cells, informed by land use and land cover from Corine Land Cover Refined 2006 and by the distribution and density of built-up as mapped in the European Settlement Map 2016 layer.
Map represents the calculated (surface) heat-flow density (HFD) in mW/m2 with topographic correction. It is made with data from 119 boreholes from the measured temperatures in the available boreholes and measured thermal conductivity on cored rock samples from the same boreholes. The pattern of the HFD isolines is affected by numerous parameters, particularly the thermal conductivity of rocks, rock permeability and fracturing, fluid content of the rocks, and all are reflected in the measured temperature gradient in the boreholes.

Service Request: The nation-wide asset mapping for Finland provides a detailed regional geospatial dataset for the quick and uncomplicated calculation of potential damages either in the preparedness phase or during the immediate response phase of crises caused by natural hazard events. The concept follows the Basic European Asset Map (BEAM) data model developed under the Copernicus precursor project SAFER (Services and Applications for Emergency Response) and extended in the FP7 project IncREO (Increasing Resilience through Earth Observation).BEAM Finland is a comprehensive dataset comprising of a set of spatialized economic indicator values and a population density value. All economic attributes are expressed in EURO/m². By using GIS methods for intersecting BEAM data with hazard intensity information and appropriate vulnerability functions quick regional estimates can be made for exposure of assets and population, damage assessments and cost/benefit analysis.The wall-to-wall map and vector dataset depicts assets for various economic categories as well as for population density. The data are derived by combining socioeconomic data and land use/cover data. Fourteen distinct contributing attributes for the asset mapping are provided (e.g. buildings, households, industry, agriculture, etc.). Assets information is made available not only as a cumulative layer of different types of assets (e.g. private households, industry, commerce, vehicles, agriculture, etc.), but as accessible single contributing layers as well, each of them expressing its value.

This dataset contains 23 30m resolution raster data of continental Europe land use / land cover classes extracted from OpenStreetMap, as well as administrative areas, and a harmonized building dataset based on OpenStreetMap and Copernicus HRL Imperviousness data.
The land use / land cover classes are:
The land use / land cover data was generated by extracting OSM vector layers from https://download.geofabrik.de/). These were then transformed into a 30 m density raster for each feature type. This was done by first creating a 10 m raster where each pixel intersecting a vector feature was assigned the value 100. These pixels were then aggregated to 10 m resolution by calculating the average of every 9 adjacent pixels. This resulted in a 0—100 density layer for the three feature types. Although the digitized building data from OSM offers the highest level of detail, its coverage across Europe is inconsistent. To supplement the building density raster in regions where crowd-sourced OSM building data was unavailable, we combined it with Copernicus High Resolution Layers (HRL) (obtained from https://land.copernicus.eu/pan-european/ high-resolution-layers), filling the non-mapped areas in OSM with the Impervious Built-up 2018 pixel values, which was averaged to 30 m. The probability values produced by the averaged aggregation were integrated in such a way that values between 0—100 refer to OSM (lowest and highest probabilities equal to 0 and 100 respectively), and the values between 101—200 refer to Copernicus HRL (lowest and highest probability equal to 200 and 101 respectively). This resulted in a raster layer where values closer to 100 are more likely to be buildings than values closer to 0 and 200. Structuring the data in this way allows us to select the higher probability building pixels in both products by the single boolean expression: Pixel > 50 AND pixel <150.
This dataset is part of the OpenStreetMap+ was used to pre-process the LUCAS/CORINE land use / land cover samples (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4740691) used to train machine learning models in Witjes et al., 2022 (https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-561383/v4)

This metadata refers to the HRL Forest 2018 primary status layer Tree Cover Density (TCD). The TCD raster product provides information on the proportional crown coverage per pixel at 10m spatial resolution and ranges from 0% (all non-tree covered areas) to 100%, whereby Tree Cover Density is defined as the "vertical projection of tree crowns to a horizontal earth’s surface“. The production of the High Resolution Forest layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme.
The HRL Forest product consists of 3 types of (status) products and additional change products. The status products are available for 2012, 2015, and 2018 reference years: 1. Tree cover density (TCD) (level of tree cover density in a range from 0-100%) 2. Dominant leaf type (DLT) (broadleaved or coniferous majority) 3. Forest type product (FTY). The forest type product allows to get as close as possible to the FAO forest definition. In its original (10m (2018) / 20m (2012, 2015)) resolution it consists of two products: a dominant leaf type product that has a MMU of 0.5 ha, as well as a 10% tree cover density threshold applied, and 2) a support layer that maps (now only available on demand), based on the dominant leaf type product, trees under agricultural use and in urban context (derived from CLC and imperviousness 2009 data). For the final 100 m product trees under agricultural use and urban context from the support layer are removed. NEW for 2018: the 10m 2018 reference year FTY product now also has the agricultural/urban trees removed. In the past this was done only for the 100m product, now it is consistently applied for both the 10m and the 100m FTY products.
This dataset is provided as 10 meter rasters (fully conformant with the EEA reference grid) in 100 x 100 km tiles grouped according to the EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom.
