Description

GHS-AGE consists of spatial raster datasets representing global, gridded estimates of the dominant age of the built stock. GHS-AGE has been derived from a multi-temporal stack of gridded estimates of built-up surface (GHS-BUILT-S R2023A, 1975-2020) that has derived from integrated processing of Sentinel-2 and historical Landsat multispectral data. GHS-AGE estimates represent the epoch in which 50% of the built-up surface of 2020 has been exceeded for the first time, for each grid cell. GHS-AGE enables the global, fine-grained modelling of approximate building construction epoch information using a globally consistent methodology.

Resources on AWS

Description

GHS-AGE is available in World Mollweide Equal Area projection (ESRI:54009), at 100 m and 1000 m resolution, and for two levels of temporal resolution (i.e., 5-year and 10-year intervals). Class codes for 10-year intervals: 0: not built-up; 1: median age < 1980; 2: 1980 - 1990, 3: 1990 - 2000, 4: 2000 - 2010, 5: 2010 - 2020. Class codes for 5-year intervals: 0: not built-up; 1: median age < 1975; 2: 1975 - 1980,..., 10: 2010 - 2020.
