  1. While the original columns as shown in Table 5 remains the same (“FLIK”, “AREA_HA” and “CODE” have been abbreviated in this print), three additional attributes were added: Firstly, “EC_trans_n” is the direct translation of the crop name in its original language. Then, correspondingly, “EC_hcat_n” is the matched name of that particular crop in HCAT. These names are all lowercase and with underscores to make them easier to process automatically. Lastly, the column “EC_hcat_c” shows the HCAT code that puts the HCAT names into a hierarchical structure. A more detailed explanation of HCAT is presented in the publication by Schneider et al.1.
