Shoreline series of the Doniños coastal system, NW Iberia (1945-2020): A Geospatial Dataset
<p>This repository stores shoreline data spanning from 1945 to 2020, derived from aerial photography and orthophotos, for the Doniños coastal system in NW Iberia. The shoreline indicator is defined as the boundary between vegetated dunes and bare beach sand. The methodology and dataset are detailed in the following publication:</p> <p><em><strong>Rita González-Villanueva, Martiño Pastoriza, Armand Hernández, Rafael Carballeira, Alberto Sáez, Roberto Bao. "Primary drivers of dune cover and shoreline dynamics: A conceptual model based on the Iberian Atlantic coast."

Modern China Geospatial Database - Main Dataset
<p>MCGD_Data_V2.2 contains all the data that we have collected on locations in modern China, plus a number of locations outside of China that we encounter frequently in historical sources on China. All further updates will appear under the name "MCGD_Data" with a time stamp (e.g., MCGD_Data2023-06-21)</p> <p>You can also have access to this dataset and all the datasets that the ENP-China makes available on GitLab: https://gitlab.com/enpchina/IndexesEnp</p> <p>Altogether there are 464,970 entries. The data include seven variables:<br>- Name: Place names and their variants in Chinese, pinyin, and any recorded transliteration<br>- Prov_Zh: Chinese province names in Chinese characters (新疆, 江蘇, 河北, etc.)<br>- Prov_Py: Chinese province names in pinyin<br>- LAT: Latitude coordinates<br>- LONG: Longitude coordinates<br>- LocID: Location identifiers<br>- NameID: Location name identifiers</p> <p>The Name IDs all start with H followed by seven digits. This is the internal ID system of MCGD.</p> <p>Locations IDs that start with "D" are data points extracted from China Historical GIS (Harvard University); those that start with "E" are locations extracted from the data points in Geonames or data points we have added from various map sources.</p> <p>One of the main features of the MCGD Main Dataset is the systematic collection and compilation of place names from non-Chinese language historical sources. Locations were designated in transliteration systems that are hardly comprehensible today, which makes it very difficult to find the actual locations they correspond to. This dataset allows for the conversion from these obsolete transliterations to the current names and geocoordinates.</p> <p>From June 2021 onward, we have adopted a different file naming system to keep track of versions. From MCGD_Data_V1 we have moved to MCGD_Data_V2. In June 2022, we introduced time stamps, which result in the following naming convention: MCGD_Data_YYYY.MM.DD. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>UPDATES</strong></p> <p><strong>MCGD_Data2025_08_06</strong> introduces a significant update with the addition of the <strong>‘Code’</strong> column. This column categorizes place names as follows:</p> <ul> <li> <p><strong>A</strong>: Canonical Chinese name</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>C</strong>: Alternative Chinese name</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>P</strong>: Romanized name in pinyin</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>W</strong>: Romanized name in another transliteration system</p> </li> </ul> <p>When the codes <strong>P</strong> or <strong>W</strong> are doubled (<strong>PP</strong>, <strong>WW</strong>), this indicates that the place name does not match any existing Chinese name in the dataset. These unmatched names will be reviewed and linked progressively, rather than through a systematic batch process, due to their high volume.The coding system is designed to facilitate name-matching operations between MCGD and place names extracted from historical sources using programming tools. It also enables filtering for more precise and efficient matching. The dataset contains a total of <strong>472,749 entries</strong>.</p> <p>MCGD_Data2025_02_28 includes a major change with the duplication of all the locations listed under Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, and Chongqing (北京, 上海, 天津, 重慶) and their listing under the name of the provinces to which they belonge origially before the creation of the four special municipalities after 1949. This is meant to facilitate the matching of data from historical sources. Each location has a unique NameID. Altogether there are 472,818 entries</p> <p>MCGD_Data2025_02_27 inclues an update on locations extracted from Minguo zhengfu ge yuanhui keyuan yishang zhiyuanlu 國民政府各院部會科員以上職員錄 (Directory of staff members and above in the ministries and committees of the National Government). Nanjing: Guomin zhengfu wenguanchu yinzhuju 國民政府文官處印鑄局國民政府文官處印鑄局, 1944). We also made corrections in the Prov_Py and Prov_Zh columns as there were some misalignments between the pinyin name and the name in Chines characters. The file now includes 465,128 entries.</p> <p>MCGD_Data2024_03_23 includes an update on locations in Taiwan from the Asia Directories. Altogether there are 465,603 entries (of which 187 place names without geocoordinates, labelled in the Lat Long columns as "Unknown").</p> <p>MCGD_Data2023.12.22 contains all the data that we have collected on locations in China, whatever the period. Altogether there are 465,603 entries (of which 187 place names without geocoordinates, labelled in the Lat Long columns as "Unknown"). The dataset also includes locations outside of China for the purpose of matching such locations to the place names extracted from historical sources. For example, one may need to locate individuals born outside of China. Rather than maintaining two separate files, we made the decision to incorporate all the place names found in historical sources in the gazetteer. Such place names can easily be removed by selecting all the entries where the 'Province' data is missing.</p>
Modern China Geospatial Database - Republican China Dataset
<p><strong>MCGD_Rep</strong> is a sample of spatial data for China in the first half of twentieth century (1900-1949). The data was extracted from the MCGD Main Dataset. It is based mostly on the list of <em>xian</em> (county) seats in 1931 [Source: Zang, Lihe 臧励龢, ed. Zhongguo gujin diming da cidian 中国古今地名大辞典. Shanghai 上海: Commercial Press, 1931], with the addition of some external data [Source: Crow Newspaper Directories]. By and large, it presents a list of the major locations in China between 1900 and 1949. It contains 1,977 entries with the following variables: name in Chinese, name in pinyin; name of the province in Chinese and in pinyin; latitude and longitude, and Name ID and Location ID.</p>
Geospatial Modelling of Australia's National Electricity Market - Dataset
<p>This dataset contains information relating to the topology of Australia's largest electricity transmission network, along with details pertaining to the technical and economic characteristics of generators operating within this grid. Information has been compiled from publicly available datasets released by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) [1, 2] and Geoscience Australia (GA) [3, 4, 5]. Potential applications include the development of economic dispatch, power-flow, and unit commitment models.</p> <p>The network is comprised of 912 nodes, 1406 AC edges, and three HVDC links. Information regarding forward and reverse power-flow limits for two AC interconnectors is also provided. Latitude and longitude coordinates are given for each node, with the network based off of geospatial datasets obtained from GA [3, 4, 5]. Signals for electricity demand at each node were derived using regional load profiles in combination with population data obtained from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) [6]. Allocation methods outlined in [7, 8] were used to disaggregate regional load profiles according to the geospatial distribution of Australia's population. Construction of the generator dataset involved compiling information obtained from AEMO's Market Management System Data Model (MMSDM) [1] and National Transmission Network Development Plan (NTNDP) [2] datasets. Historic generator dispatch signals were also obtained from AEMO [1], allowing the output of market models to be compared with realised outcomes.</p> <p>For further information regarding the contents of each csv file please refer to <code>dataset_summary.pdf</code>. Jupyter Notebooks at [9] contain the Python code necessary to reproduce these datasets.</p> <p><strong>Version history:</strong></p> <p><strong>v1.3 - Documentation update:</strong></p> <ul> <li>The document summarising datasets, <code>dataset_summary.pdf</code>, has been updated.</li> </ul> <p><strong>v1.2 - Startup cost correction:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Startup cost column labels in <code>generators.csv</code> were mistakenly switched (specifically, SU_COST_WARM and SU_COST_HOT). This has now been corrected.</li> </ul> <p><strong>v1.1 - Transmission line parameters and demand allocation update</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Transmission lines: </strong>Line resistance and shunt susceptance values have been updated. Transmission line lengths and voltages have also been added to <code>network_edges.csv</code>. AC interconnector information is split over two files to better capture aggregate flow limits defined over the New South Wales - Victoria interconnector. Connection points for these interconnectors are described in <code>network_ac_interconnector_links.csv</code>, while <code>network_ac_interconnector_flow_limits.csv</code> contains aggregate forward and reverse power flow limits.</li> <li><strong>Demand allocation: </strong>The algorithm used to approximate demand at different nodes has been updated. The new method constructs a Voronoi tessellation based on network nodes. These cells are then overlapped with geospatial ABS population data, which are used to estimate the number of people served by each node.</li> </ul> <p><strong>v1.0 - First release</strong></p>

A geospatial dataset of lichen key attributes in the Earth's three poles
<p>To develop the geospatial dataset, we initially defined two lichen attributes: color type and growth form. These attributes were chosen due to their significant correlation with lichen physiological and biochemical characteristics, as well as their association with reflection spectra. Each record of this geospatial dataset consists of information such as scientific name, longitude, latitude, ecoregion name, biome name, color type, growth form, and the occurranceID belongs to the GBIF original dataset.</p> <p>This dataset serves as a foundational resource for extensive investigations into the intricate interplay between lichen physiology and the environment, addressing a significant knowledge gap in the field. Furthermore, our dataset holds the potential to address challenges associated with remote sensing monitoring of lichens, a longstanding issue in vegetation remote sensing. Precise in situ observation records, as provided by our dataset, can facilitate the development of remote sensing techniques tailored for lichen monitoring.</p> <p>"Program" is the code used in the process of establishing the geospatial dataset of lichen key attributes in the Earth’s three poles.</p> <p> </p>

The first geospatial dataset of irrigated fields (2020-2024) in Vojvodina (Serbia)
<p><span>Irrigation is a cornerstone of global food security, enabling sustainable agricultural production and helping to ensure that food is available for people around the world, now and in the future. Mapping irrigated fields provides valuable information for sustainable water management, agricultural development, and environmental conservation efforts. However, the collection of high-quality training data, which is necessary for accurate irrigation mapping remains costly and labour-intensive. To address this, we created a georeferenced regional dataset consisting of location, crop type, and occurrence of the irrigation equipment which are essential information for mapping irrigated fields. Four main irrigated crops were considered: maize, soybean, sugar beet, and wheat. The dataset<span>,</span> consisting of a total of 1256 parcels<span>,</span> is created for Vojvodina, the main agricultural area in Serbia, spanning the period of five years (2020 - 2024). This study’s goal is to give accessibility to our dataset which further can be explored and used for building or fine-tuning machine learning and deep learning models for the automatic detection of irrigated fields using satellite imagery.</span></p>

A Geospatial Source Selector for Federated GeoSPARQL Querying - Datasets
<p>This dataset comprises of a set of individual RDF files. It contains 3 data layers that cover Austria (namely Administrative data, Snow cover data, and Crop-type data), and each layer is also divided geospatially. Thus, each RDF file contains only one thematic layer and refers to a specific area.</p> <p>This data can be used in the context of experimenting with federated query processors. Thus, if we deploy each RDF file in a separate GeoSPARQL endpoint, we will have a resulting federation of 34 GeoSPARQL source endpoints. The objective of this scenario is to evaluate the effectiveness of a source selection mechanism of a federation engine, and, in particular, if the source selector is aware of the geospatial nature of the source endpoints.</p>

The 2022 demographic data provided an accurate picture compared to the data available from the 2023 microcensus. The used calculation is based on our standardisation of the 2022 data. For xlsx files, we used MS Excel 2019 (version: 1808, build: 10406.20006) with the SOLVER add-in.</p> <p>Hungarian Central Statistical Office served as the data source for population by age group, county, and regions: <a href="https://www.ksh.hu/stadat_files/nep/hu/nep0035.html">https://www.ksh.hu/stadat_files/nep/hu/nep0035.html</a>, (accessed 04 Jan. 2024.) with data recorded in MS Excel in the <em>Data_of_demography.xlsx</em> file.</p> <p>In 2022, 108 Health Development Offices (HDOs) were operational, and it's noteworthy that no developments have occurred in this area since 2022. The availability of these offices and the demographic data from the Central Statistical Office in Hungary are considered public interest data, freely usable for research purposes without requiring permission.</p> <p>The contact details for the Health Development Offices were sourced from the following page (Hungarian National Population Centre (NNK)): <a href="https://www.nnk.gov.hu/index.php/efi">https://www.nnk.gov.hu/index.php/efi</a> (n=107).

Askja caldera 1945-2023 geospatial dataset
<p>Here, we present a geospatial dataset covering the 1945-2023 period of morphodynamics at Askja caldera, Iceland. The dataset consists of three parts: (1) digital elevation models (DEMs) generated from the 1945 and 1987 archive aerial photographs, 2013 and 2022 Pléiades satellite imagery, and 2019, 2022, and 2023 drone images; (2) orthophotographs generated from the same source data; and (3) set of shapefiles, which represents the identified morphological features at the SE wall of Askja caldera.</p> <p>The initial data was processed using Agisoft Metashape Professional v. 1.8.3 photogrammetric software. In addition, the 2022 and 2023 drone datasets contained infrared images that were pre-processed in ThermoViewer v. 3.0.4 and DJI Thermal Analysis Tool v. 3.1.0. The features in the shapefiles were extracted based on the DEMs and orthophotos using ArcGIS desktop v. 10.8.2 tools.</p> <p>Data was used to perform 2D and 3D analysis of the long-term geomorphological processes and slope instability at the caldera wall, to reveal precursors of preparing hazardous events, and to calculate volumes of the 2014 landslide. Repeated morphological analysis and feature tracking starting from 1945 revealed that changes are persistent over the observation period, locally accumulating in the area, which was later affected by the 2014 landslide. The results are relevant for understanding the factors of slope instability at Askja caldera and for possible hazard assessment.</p> <p>We acknowledge the National Land Survey of Iceland (LMI) for providing the 1987 and 1945 aerial photographs, the National Center for Space Studies (CNES) for providing Plèiades data at a preferential (institutional) price, the German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ) for financing the fieldwork.</p> <p>This dataset corresponds to an article: Shevchenko, A.V., Walter, T.R., Gudmundsson, M.T. et al.
