This dataset is developed in the framework of the LADA project (Land degradation Assessment in Drylands) by the Land Tenure and Management Unit of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and is copyright of FAO/UNEP GEF. The LUS map implementation is based on a innovative methodology combining more than 10 global datasets. Due to the map generation method, the quality of the map can never be uniform. The overall quality of the map depends heavily on the individual quality of the data for the different countries. The general purpose of the map is to describe the Land Use Systems of the world. onGoing Freddy Nachtergaele Senior Officer Land Resources (Retired) FAO-UN - AGLL (former FAO Land and Water Division) land-and-water@fao.org author Monica Petri FAO-UN - AGLL (former FAO Land and Water Division) Geospatial Expert Consultant land-and-water@fao.org originator asNeeded lus_wrld_s.png thumbnail lus_wrld.png large_thumbnail land use systems theme World place copyright grid 5000000 eng utf8 environment -180.00 180.00 -90.00 90.00 World 1998-01-01T14:35:00 2008-04-08T14:35:00 http://www.fao.org/nr/lada/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link LADA Project web page LADA Project web page http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lus.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Land use systems ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lust.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Land Use Systems TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=clim.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Major Ecosystems ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=climt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Major Ecosystems TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lvstd.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Livestock presence ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lvstdt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Livestock presence TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lvst.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Livestock species ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lvstt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Livestock species TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=crops.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Crops ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=cropst.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Crops TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=irri.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Irrigation intensity classes ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=irrit.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Irrigation intensity classes TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=mf.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Agricultural management factor GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=mft.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Agricultural management factor TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=ther.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Thermal regime ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=thert.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Thermal regime TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lgp.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Length of growing period ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=lgpt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Length of growing period TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=soil.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Soil ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=soilt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Soil TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=slp.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Slope ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=slpt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Slope TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=popd.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Population density ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=popdt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Population density TIF http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=pov.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Infant mortality rate ESRI GRID http://www.fao.org/geonetwork/srv/en/resources.get?id=37139&fname=povt.zip&access=private WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Infant mortality rate TIF Due to the map generation method, the quality of the map can never be uniform.
