GHS BUILT-UP GRID (LDS)
These data contain a multitemporal information layer on built-up presence as derived from Landsat image collections (GLS1975, GLS1990, GLS2000, and ad-hoc Landsat 8 collection 2013/2014).
The data have been produced by means of Global Human Settlement Layer methodology in 2015.
