Tree proximate people (TPP) 1.0

  • The "Tree Proximate People" (TPP) dataset provides global estimates for the number of people living in or near agricultural lands and croplands with at least 10% tree cover.

  • This dataset contributes to monitoring the number of forest-dependent people in extreme poverty, a key indicator for the Collaborative Partnership on Forests.

  • The TPP dataset offers four different estimates with 100-meter pixel size for the year 2019, distinguishing between 500m and 1km proximity to trees and agricultural land types.

  • The data is provided by the FAO Forestry Division and is available under the CC-BY-4.0 license for use.

Description

The "Tree Proximate People" (TPP) is one of the datasets contributing to the development of indicator #13, number of forest-dependent people in extreme poverty, of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) Global Core Set of forest-related indicators (GCS). The TPP dataset provides 4 different estimates of tree proximate people (trees outside forests), all of them for the year 2019 with a pixel size of 100 meters at a global level.
