Decadal maps of multiple alternative future land use based on UK Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (UK-SSPs) and climate projections (UK-RCPs)
The data describes future land use projections at 1 km^2 resolution developed by CRAFTY-GB. For each of six Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP-RCP) scenarios, gridded land use maps for Great Britain are provided, each as a stacked raster file with seven bands representing land use at each decadal timestep, from 2020 to 2080. CRAFTY-GB is a new agent-based model of the British land system operating at a 1 km^2 resolution and based on a broad range of available land system data . The model is base

Useful for
- Use cases llm-inferred
- Future land-use context for catchment runoff and flood risk assessments under SSP-RCP scenarios · Decadal land-use inputs for drainage strategy and long-term catchment planning · Future habitat and land-cover change context for BNG and ecological baseline reporting
- Audience llm-inferred
- hydrologists · flood consultants · drainage engineers · ecologists · planners · GIS analysts
Limitations
- Constraints llm-inferred
- Spatial resolution is stated inconsistently: 1 km^2 in the description but '1 metres' in the spatial metadata · Covers Great Britain only, not Northern Ireland or the wider UK · Decadal timesteps only, not annual · Outputs are agent-based model projections under scenarios, not predictions · Raster (TIFF) data requires GIS tooling; no API or MCP access is described · Citation in any publication is required under the licence terms
