Fields from LandbrugsGIS

Explore the fields, year by year

Browse the available field data from LandbrugsGIS. Each annual edition shows the fields and crops declared that year. Boundaries and field numbers can change, so a location’s history does not necessarily describe one continuous field.

  • Crop, crop code, field block and declared area
  • Annual editions to explore individually or together
  • Shareable links to the selected field and map view
  • Documentation and links to the original data
