Type & Source
A composite dataset produced by BCL that maps parcel‑level urban areas across China using four complementary approaches—benchmarking road‑junction density, population density, vector cellular automata, and GlobCover interpretation. Development details are described in Long & Shen (2014).
Contents
The download package contains four ESRI Shapefile layers:
- Road Junction Density
- Population Density (derived from BCL Data Population Density of China at the Town Level)
- Vector Cellular Automata
- GLOBCOVER‑based Urban Extent
