Global Development Potential Indices, v1 (2016): Non-metallic Mining
The Global Development Potential Indices are part of the Land Use Land Cover collection. The data set contains 13 sector-level Development Potential Indices (DPIs) for sectors related to renewable energy (concentrated solar power, photovoltaic solar, wind, hydropower), fossil fuels (coal, conventional and unconventional oil and gas), mining (metallic, non-metallic), and agriculture (crop, biofuels expansion). Each DPI is a 1-km spatially-explicit, global land suitability map that has been validated using locations of planned development as well as examined for uncertainty and sensitivity. This map displays the DPI for non-metallic mining, grouped into six 6 classes ranging from very low to very high.
