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.
Chlorophyll-a concentration values indicate the statistically significant percent change in chlorophyll-a concentrations in near coastal waters (10-100 km) from 1998-2007, derived from SeaWiFS level-3 annual composites. The Change in Chlorophyll-a Concentration, v1 (1998-2007) data set is part of the Indicators of Coastal Water Quality collection. See more information at dx.doi.org/10.7927/H48W3B88.

Passive Remote sensing Passive remote sensing is a class of Remote Sensing that make use of Passive Remote Sensors. The sensors are used to detect natural radiations that are emitted by the object or by its surrounding areas. The most common source of energy that is measured by Passive Remote Sensors is “Reflected Sunlight”.

Active Remote Sensing, Active Remote Sensing is a class of remote Sensing that makes use of Active Remote Sensors. These sensors provide their own source of illumination and they emit radiations that are directed towards the target body that is to be investigated. Active Remote sensors emit energy in order to scan the objects and areas and they then detect and measure the radiations that are reflected or are backscattered from the target body.
