Tree proximate people (TPP) 1.0

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.
