The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species provides a habitat classification scheme for different habitat types. To map the spatial location of each of these habitat classes, Jung et al. (2020a) developed a global raster dataset by combining a range of different land use and land cover data (Jung et al. 2020b). They created two habitat classification schemes – termed level 1 and level 2 classification schemes – to describe coarse-scale and fine-scale differences in habitat classes. This dataset provides a crosswalk table to associate the values in the level 2 raster dataset with IUCN habitat classes.

Usage

data(crosswalk_jung_lvl2_data)

Format

A data frame (tibble::tibble()) object with 126 rows and 2 columns. Each row corresponds to a different IUCN habitat class. It has the following columns:

code

The character code for a given IUCN habitat class.

value

The numeric value assigned to grid cells in the raster data that contain the IUCN habitat class (see get_jung_lvl2_habitat_data()).

Source

The data were obtained from Jung et al. (2020b).
