Border Region Austria - Slovakia around Bratislava
EuroCrops is a dataset collection combining all publicly available self-declared crop reporting datasets from countries of the European Union. The project is funded by the German Space Agency at DLR on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK). This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
Right now EuroCrops only includes vector data, but stay tuned for a version that includes satellite imagery!

- Reference
Disclaimer: The Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics 3 (NUTS3) region, which we added by hand, is just an approximate assignment of a crop parcel to a region. It might happen that a parcel is not correctly allocated to the right region or country. The NUTS3 attribute is only meant to be an aid for a meaningful spatial division of the dataset into training, validation and test sets.
The raw data obtained from the countries does not come in a unified, machine-readable taxonomy. We, therefore, developed a new Hierarchical Crop and Agriculture Taxonomy (HCAT) that harmonises all declared crops across the European Union. In the shapefiles you'll find this as additional attributes:
| Attribute Name | Explanation |
|---|---|
| EC_trans_n | The original crop name translated into English |
| EC_hcat_n | The machine-readable HCAT name of the crop |
| EC_hcat_c | The 10-digit HCAT code indicating the hierarchy of the crop |

The vector data is now available via zenodo, currently we are on Version 6!
Vector data download via Sync&Share (only Version 1)
The shapefiles of the countries are available via Sync&Share. Please also make sure to download the data for the countries individually, as there might be some loss otherwise.
