title: The Habitat Map of Switzerland v1

description: Lebensraumkarte der Schweiz/La carte des milieux naturels de Suisse
The FOEN funded project ‘Developing a Habitat Map of Switzerland’ conducted at the WSL, has produced a map of Swiss habitats according to the TypoCH classification (Delarze et al. 2015) wall-to-wall across the whole of Switzerland, to at least the classification’s 2nd level of detail (where possible to the 3rd level of detail). The implementation of the Habitat Map of Switzerland is a vector data set, where each polygon of the dataset is classified to one habitat type only.
Habitats are mapped through a variety of approaches that can be grouped as either:
1: Derived from the existing Swiss-wide high quality landcover mapping from Swisstopo’s Topographical Landscape Model (TLM), 2: Modelled within the project using Random Forest or Ensemble Modelling techniques to model the spatial distribution of individual habitat types, 3: Combining existing species distribution models to determine habitat types, or 4: Classification with relatively simple rule-sets based on auxiliary spatial datasets, i.e. vegetation height models, the digital terrain model, the normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) derived from aerial imagery and/or time-series of growing season Sentinel-2 satellite imagery. Further detail on the methodology can be found within the README document.

 Description: The Habitat Map of Switzerland is a vector data set, where each polygon of the dataset is classified to one habitat type only. Available here is the dataset clipped to a 2km buffer around the borders of canton Valais, as a zipped folder containing a file geodatabase (.gdb, ArcGIS), the data description document (pdf) and symbology layer (lyr, lyrx, qlr) for the legend as the data appears on the WSL's virtual data centre (https://vdc.wsl.ch/vdc_expert). V1 20220316 has been improved (from V1 20211118) to repair geometry errors, and simplify geometry to reduce data size
