Biomass

The terraPulse Biomass dataset represents actual and potential aboveground biomass, as either biomass (Mg C) or biomass density (Mg C/ha), at up to 30-meter, annual resolution globally from 1984 to present. The products are estimated by artificial intelligence trained on spaceborne lidar and other reference measurements correlated to a suite of terraPulse landcover, disturbance history, vegetation indices, and other environmental variables. Certainty is represented by Root Mean Square Error.

The terraPulse biomass dataset is provided at two levels, with global calibration or as an enterprise dataset calibrated to client reference measurements.

Crop & Rangelands

Cropland

Geospatial Data

TerraPulse hosts the US Department of Agriculture Cropland Data Layer for visualization on terraView and download through terraServe. The data cover the conterminous US at a resolution of 30 meters from 2008 to the previous year. Coverage may be greater or lesser depending on regional agricultural intensity. The data represent 107 agricultural crop species and types, as well as seven non-agricultural types.
