Abstract:

Using 2020 as the baseline year and 1-m-resolution remote-sensing images from Google Earth Pro, the authors developed a global oasis dataset, which began to be published in 2025 in the form of entries in the World Geographic Data Encyclopedia and was released at the 5th World Congress of Biosphere Reserves. The dataset provides detailed information showing that oases are distributed across 5 continents and in 54 countries. The total area of the global oasis is 2,482,193.27 km². The easternmost oasis in the world is located in Queensland, Australia, the westernmost in California, USA, the northernmost around Lake Uvs in Mongolia, and the southernmost on the eastern side of the Andes Mountains in South America. The global oases have 4,850 spatial units, and each was assigned a systematic code. The coding system is based on 4 attributes: continent, country, river basin, and area. The video is available in both Chinese and English versions, archived in .mov format, and consists of 2 data files with data size of 0.98 GB. The English version has 3 minutes and 40 seconds.
