A portolan/stac catalog of every known available non-AI generated field boundary.
The dataset includes the land cover layer from the Romanian side of the Romania-Bulgaria cross-border area (Mehedinți, Dolj, Olt, Teleorman, Giurgiu, Călărași, Constanța counties), developed within the project "Common strategy for territorial development of the cross-border area Romania-Bulgaria", code MIS-ETC 171, funded by the Romania-Bulgaria Cross-Border Cooperation Programme 2007-2013.
The dataset is published in the WGS 84 / UTM zone 35N coordinate system (to be compatible with the similar dataset on the Bulgarian side).
The dataset is in line with the conceptual framework described in the Land Cover Data Specifications for the Implementation of the INSPIRE Directive (version 3.0). The information layer was developed based on a methodology developed within the project, which was carried out as follows: - analysis and harmonisation of the land cover classification system; - acquisition and processing of the reference data, listed below; - verification and validation of the quality of the spatial data produced;

The latest edition is also available at a stable path: ec_ro/latest/ec_ro.parquet. All editions together through the S3 glob s3://ftw/harmonized-field-data/ec_ro/year=*/*.parquet (see the AGENTS.md for the DuckDB setup; plain https cannot expand *).
Properties that are the same for every field are stored once, in the GeoParquet file's collection metadata rather than as columns (latest edition shown; a client reading only the table will not see them):

This catalog is a mirror: the data is produced and licensed by Ministry of Regional Development and Public Administration http://spatial.mdrap.ro, EuroCrops and republished here as cloud-native GeoParquet and PMTiles by Fields of the World. Each edition was downloaded from the source and converted with fiboa-cli 0.21.0, vecorel-cli 0.2.15:
The conversion is deterministic and lives in fiboa-cli; changes to how a column is mapped are made there, not in this catalog.

hcat:name | string | The machine-readable HCAT name of the crop (Hierarchical Crop and Agriculture Taxonomy, EuroCrops). (spec) |
hcat:name_en | string | The original crop name translated into English. (spec) |
metrics:area | float | Area of the field, in square meters (m²). Must be > 0 and <= 1,000,000,000. (spec) |
hcat:code | uint32 | The 10-digit HCAT code indicating the hierarchy of the crop. The first 4, 6, 8 digits select increasingly specific crop groups. (spec) |
bbox | struct<xmin: double, ymin: double, xmax: double, ymax: double> | The bounding box of the field. Per-feature covering column (GeoParquet 1.1), in the source CRS. (spec) |
