hansen_forest_change_download

Downloads and merges Global Forest Change (Hansen) rasters that intersect the user-provided geometry/time range. The workflow lists Global Forest Change (Hansen) products that intersect the user-provided geometry/time range, downloads the data for each of them, and merges the rasters. The dataset is available at 30m resolution and is updated annually. The data contains information on forest cover, loss, and gain. The default dataset version is GFC-2022-v1.10 and is passed to the workflow as the parameter tiles_folder_url. For the default version, the dataset is available from 2000 to 2022. Dataset details can be found at https://storage.googleapis.com/earthenginepartners-hansen/GFC-2022-v1.10/download.html.

Sources

input_item: User-provided geometry and time range.

Sinks

merged_raster: Merged Global Forest Change (Hansen) data as a raster.
downloaded_raster: Individual Global Forest Change (Hansen) rasters prior to the merge operation.

Parameters

layer_name: Name of the Global Forest Change (Hansen) layer. Can be any of the following names ‘treecover2000’, ‘loss’, ‘gain’, ‘lossyear’, ‘datamask’, ‘first’, ‘last’.
tiles_folder_url: URL to the Global Forest Change (Hansen) dataset. It specifies the dataset version and is used to download the data.

Tasks

list: Lists Global Forest Change (Hansen) products that intersect the user-provided geometry/time range.
