There is a 1 year lag between the source data and the TCA Assessment year. For instance in 2024, mean annual productivity data used were 1984-2018 (historical record) and 2019-2023 (recent conditions). Note that in 2022, data only covers the western US, in all other years it covers CONUS.</span></span></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'><span>Format:</span></span><span><span> Raster data are binary: (1) negative or (0) not negative.</span></span></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'><span>Resolution:</span></span><span><span> 250m</span></span></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'><span>Source: </span></span><span><span>Annual RPMS Products from </span></span><a href='https://fuelcast.net/downloads' style='text-decoration:underline;'><span style='text-decoration:underline;'><span>FuelCast</span></span></a><span><span>.
