[dataset] MapSPAM Harvested Area

This dataset is part of the MapSPAM series on spatial production. It is produced as result of the MapSPAM Model Process. The harvested area is produced as the actual harvested area by multipling the allocated physical area (MapSPAM Physical Area) by the cropping intensity. Since it also counts for multiple harvests of a crop, it can be larger than the actual physical area. It is calculated for each production system (irrigated farming system, rainfed-high input farming system, rainfed-low input farming system, rainfed subsistence farming system).

"measured in hectares, harvested area is at least as large as physical area but sometimes more since it also accounts for multiple harvests of a crop on the same plot. Like for physical area, the harvested area is calculated for each production system, and the sum of all harvested areas of all production systems in a pixel amounts to the total harvested area of the pixel. The sum of all the harvested areas of the crops in a pixel can be larger than the pixel size."
