The dataset contains results from the publication "Rwandas pathway to net zero empowering smallholder farmers and forest restoration", available online at: https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-3337982/v1. The content is composed of 8 files listed as the following (please see the Methods section of the publication for more details):1. "Tree_Density_map_FARMLAND_2008.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the density (count or sum) of individual trees per ha in Rwandan farmlands, mapped using aerial images of Rwanda from 2008. 2. "Tree_Density_map_FARMLAND_2019.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the density (count or sum) of individual trees per ha in Rwandan farmlands, mapped using WordlView satellite images of Rwanda from 2019. 3. "Tree_Density_map_DEG_NAT_FOR_2008.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the density (count or sum) of individual trees per ha in Rwandan degraded natural forests, mapped using WordlView satellite images of Rwanda from 2008. 4. "Tree_Density_map_DEG_NAT_FOR_2019.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the density (count or sum) of individual trees per ha in Rwandan degraded natural forests, mapped using WordlView satellite images of Rwanda from 2019. 5. "AGC_FARMLAND_2008.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the estimated Aboveground Carbon stock per (Mg C ha) for individual trees in Rwandan farmlands for 2008. 6. "AGC_FARMLAND_2019.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the estimated Aboveground Carbon stock per (Mg C ha) for individual trees in Rwandan farmlands for 2019. 7. "AGC_DEG_NAT_FOR_2008.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the estimated Aboveground Carbon stock per (Mg C ha) for individual trees in Rwandan degraded natural forests for 2008. 8. "AGC_DEG_NAT_FOR_2019.tif". This is a 100m resolution GeoTIFF file with a coordinate reference system of EPSG: 4326, containing the estimated Aboveground Carbon stock per (Mg C ha) for individual trees in Rwandan degraded natural forests for 2019.Note: Please note that the images have undergone specific preprocessing (especially due to differences in image sources and quality), which make the results presented here not directly comparabe to the results from https://doi.org/10.1038/s41558-022-01544-w .
