The data extends over 4.3 billion hectares of the global tropics.    The data is derived from multi-temporal convolutional neural network models applied to Sentinel optical and radar imagery. The 10-meter dataset is a binary tree extent layer that is similar to a land cover map, while the tree cover data represents fractional cover at a half-hectare scale.
