Inputs#

Outputs#

  • resources/natura/natura.tiff: Rasterized version of the world protected areas, such as WDPA natural protection areas to reduce computation times.

Description#

To operate the script you need all input files.

This script collects all shapefiles available in the folder data/landcover/* describing regions of protected areas, merges them to one shapefile, and create a rasterized version of the region, that covers the region described by the cutout. The output is a raster file with the name natura.tiff in the folder resources/natura/.
