National Mountain Peatland Maps of Colombia

This dataset contains three national-scale classified maps (National, Regional, and Subregional) of mountain peatlands across Colombia. The maps were generated using Random Forest classification with field-validated training data and a stacked image composed of Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, ALOS PALSAR, and SRTM-derived topographic layers. Each map reflects a different spatial extent approach.
