This is the file used to create Figure 2 of the paper:

Crezee et al. (2022). Nature Geoscience. Mapping peat thickness and carbon stocks of the central Congo Basin using field data. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a raster file comparing peatland predictions from Crezee et al. (2022) and Dargie et al. (2017). 

For each study, a binary peat/non-peat map was created, based on a 50% peat probability threshold. In both maps, each pixel was classified as peat if it had >500 hardwood- or palm-dominated peat swamp forests predictions out of 1,000 model runs. A comparison was then made by overlaying the resulting maps. 

The class values are:
	0. Neither study predicted peat swamp forest
	1. Only Dargie et al. (2017) predicted peat swamp forest
	2. Only Crezee et al. (2022) predicted peat swamp forest
	3. Both studies predited peat swamp forest
