ESA WorldCereal products for active cropland per agro-ecological zone - V1

Seasonal active cropland is defined by the WorldCereal system as actively cultivated cropland during a specific growing season. In order for a pixel to be labeled as active during a particular growing season, a full crop growth cycle (sowing, growing, senescence and harvesting) needs to take place within the designated time period.

Note that this active marker is not crop-type specific and only consider specific seasonality. This also means in practice that any crop grown (slightly) outside the predefined growing seasons will not be flagged as active cropland in any of the seasons covered by these products. The WorldCereal active cropland products were generated within the respective annual temporary crops mask.
