Spatial–temporal distribution of global production–living–ecological space during the period 2000–2020

Abstract

Global production-living-ecology space closely corresponds with sustainable development’s economic, social and ecological elements. The dataset of global production–living–ecological space in this paper was generated by combining the global land cover obtained using GlobeLand30 and the population density supplied by NASA’s Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center in 2000, 2010, and 2020. The verification was carried out using the random sampling function of ArcGIS software on the basis of Google Earth sample images. The overall accuracy of the global production–living–ecological space data in 2020 was 83.94% and the Kappa coefficient was 0.81. The overall accuracy of the global production–living–ecological space data in 2010 was 87.00% and the Kappa coefficient was 0.84. The overall accuracy of the spatial data in 2000 was 86.06% and the Kappa coefficient was 0.83. The dataset fills a gap in the global production-living-ecology space database and will be an essential reference for assessing the coordinated development of sustainable development goals.
