dc.descriptionA Digital Global Map of Irrigated Areas is a publication related to the GMIA version 1. This paper, published on ICID Journal, 49(2), 55-66, describes the dataset, the data and map sources as well as the map generation, and it discusses the data uncertainty. The digital global map of irrigated areas was developed for the purpose of global modeling of water use and crop production, The map depicts the percentage of each 0.5˚ by 0.5˚ cell that was equipped for irrigation in 1995. It was derived by combining information from large-scale maps with outlines of irrigated areas (one or more countries per map), FAO data on totala irrigated area per country in 1995 and national data on total irrigated area per country, drainage basin or federal state.
