+# 🌲 AGBD: A Global-scale Biomass Dataset 🌳
+
+Authors: Ghjulia Sialelli ([gsialelli@ethz.ch](mailto:gsialelli@ethz.ch)), Torben Peters, Jan Wegner, Konrad Schindler
+
+## Usage
+You can use this dataset with the following lines of code:
+```
+#!pip install datasets
+from datasets import load_dataset
+dataset = load_dataset("prs-eth/AGBD", streaming=True)["train"] # or test, val
+```
+This will load an `IterableDataset` — you can learn more about how to operate on them at [this link](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/access#iterabledataset).
+
+## 25x25 Version
+
+This dataset is the bigger 25x25 Version if you want to have access to the smaller 15x15 patches goto  [huggingface.co/datasets/prs-eth/AGBD_15](https://huggingface.co/datasets/prs-eth/AGBD_15)
+
+## Dataset Description
+
+Each dataset sample consists of a pair of pre-cropped, pre-normalized images and their corresponding biomass labels. 
+The full project page including links to preprocessed uncropped data can be found on [github.com/ghjuliasialelli/AGBD/](https://github.com/ghjuliasialelli/AGBD/)
+
+### Image Details
+
+Each image contains 24 channels, organized as follows:
+
+- **Spectral Bands**: B01, B02, B03, B04, B05, B06, B07, B08, B8A, B09, B11, B12
+- **Geographical Coordinates**: lat_cos, lat_sin, lon_cos, lon_sin
+- **ALOS PALSAR Bands**: alos_hh, alos_hv
+- **Canopy Heights**: ch, ch_std
+- **Land Cover Information**: lc_cos, lc_sin, lc_prob
+- **Digital Elevation Model**: dem
