Global Forest Maps for the Year 2020 to Support the EU Regulation on Deforestation-free Supply Chains. Bourgoin, C., Verhegghen, A., Carboni, S., Degreve, L., Ameztoy, A. I., Ceccherini, G., Colditz, R., & Achard, F. Technical Report 2025. ISBN: 9789268262603 ISSN: 1831-9424
Paper doi abstract bibtex This document presents the second version of the Global map of Forest Cover for the year 2020 at 10 m spatial resolution (GFC 2020, version 2 dated 7 December 2024). This map is based on the combination of several global land cover / land use data sets and provides a spatially explicit representation of forest presence and absence for the year 2020. Additionally, this document presents a preliminary version of the Global map of Forest Types for the year 2020 (GFT 2020, version v0 dated 7 December 2024). The report presents the approaches that were developed to produce these two new maps and an analysis of the results in comparison with other international sources of information. These maps are designed to support the risk assessment in the implementation of the EU Regulation on deforestation-free supply chains (EUDR, Regulation (EU) 2023/1115), but their use is not mandatory, not exclusive and not legally binding. The primary access to this map is via the EU Observatory on Deforestation and Forest Degradation.
