Release notes summary
The major change for this release is the addition of commercial deforestation maps.These maps are ICE CoT EUDR Deforestation Maps, produced by Space Intelligence for use in the ICE Commodity Traceability platform (ICE CoT). ICE CoT EUDR Deforestation Maps are used by Meridia under a limited sub-licence from ICE Benchmark Administration Limited. To support these commercial maps, we have added two new tests (DEF04 & DEF05). Therefore, users can choose whether they want to focus on deforestation results derived from public maps (using the existing DEF01), or commercial maps (using DEF04 & DEF05).
