On 22 October 2026, Google DeepMind and Google Research, together with the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), released the Forest Typology (ForTy) 2020 global forest typology map. The map assigns every 10×10 metre parcel of land worldwide to one of six forest and land-use types, and serves as a key baseline for the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). Coverage so far reports only the release, without details on map accuracy validation, data coverage or plans for future updates.
