This Brief introduces FABIO, a new model that analyses biomass flows and embodied land along global supply chains in 191 countries, covering 130 agriculture and food products in physical and more than 50 industrial products in monetary terms over the last three decades.
FINEPRINT @ Earth Observation Open Science Conference European Space Agency's Φ-week Technologies that are coming together right now provide large computing power and access to a vast range of new satellite sensors. The integration of Big Earth Observation (EO) data brings about vast opportunities to develop novel analytical solutions towards [...]

With the ongoing reproducibility crisis casting doubts on scientific findings, we follow strict transparency and reproducibility in the FINEPRINT project, applying state-of-the-art, open tools and best practice research guidelines.
Launch of FINEPRINT repository on GitHub Open and reproducible science There is a rapidly growing group of researchers that follows a community-based and open-source paradigm for further developing data bases, models, assessment approaches and options for visualisation of results. In FINEPRINT, we want to contribute actively to this movement, making [...]
The global cropland footprint of the non-food bioeconomy First assessment of EU's global cropland footprint of non-food biomass products A new publication by members of the FINEPRINT team working on global footprinting and colleagues from partner institutions presents the first assessment of the global cropland footprint related to EU's consumption [...]
Presentation of first pilot extraction maps at EGU 2018 Identifying hot-spots of global raw material extraction At the European Geosciences Union (EGU) 2018, which took place from 8–13 April 2018 in Vienna, Victor Maus from the FINEPRINT team presented the first pilot maps on global raw material extraction. The poster [...]
