DISCLAIMER: Publication of this model code by the EIDC does not signify any endorsement or approval. By accessing and using the resource, you acknowledge that it is entirely at your own risk and you are solely responsible for any loss or liability that may arise.
Two scripts for classifying remotely sensed data used to produce maps of peatland distribution and predicted peat thickness, using random forest classification and regression. Written in JavaScript for use with Google Earth Engine.

These are versions of the scripts used in Hastie et al. (2022), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-022-00923-4. Users should also cite Rodríguez-Veiga et al. (2020), https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12152380 .

Provenance & quality

The scripts were as part of the NERC-funded project “Carbon Storage in Amazonian Peatlands: Distribution and Dynamics” (grant ref. NE/R000751/1).

To run the model code the user needs to first have a Google Earth Engine account. They should also familiarise themselves with the basics of running GEE code editor. GEE uses JavaScript.
