This GHS-BUILT-H spatial raster dataset depicts the distribution of the building heights generalized at the resolution of 100m, referred to the year 2018, as extracted from the filtering of a composite of global digital elevation models (DEM) and the filtering of satellite images using linear regression techniques. The input data used to predict the building heights are the ALOS Global Digital Surface Model ALOS World 3D - 30m (AW3D30), the NASA Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission data - 30m (SRTM30), and the Sentinel-2 global pixel based image composite from L1C data for the period 2017-2018, that is the support of the year 2018 in this release. The complete information about the GHSL main products can be found in the GHSL Data Package 2023 report (https://human-settlement.emergency.copernicus.eu/documents/GHSL_Data_Package_2023.pdf?t=1698413418). |
