About Thünen Atlas

The Thünen Atlas is a website of interactive maps and data about rural areas, forests, seas, agriculture, and land use in Germany. It is organized into five separate atlases, each covering a different subject: rural life, forests, marine use and condition, agricultural land use and livestock, and satellite-based land use.

The maps and data are intended for people who want to explore spatial patterns in these subjects. The Agraratlas presents area-wide trends across Germany, and the Fernerkundungsatlas uses satellite data. The source does not describe download options, data formats, or licensing terms.
