This dataset includes ground information derived by visual interpretation of satellite imageries taken by Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER). The dataset consists of geometries of boundaries between urban and non-urban. Although the ground information dataset is originally developed for the ASTER Global URban Area Map (AGURAM; see details at https://eco.geogrid.org/), it will be a source of training and validation for satellite remote sensing applications, such as land cover classification and urban area mapping.

1. Visual interpretation was performed with false color composite images of ASTER satellite imageries prepared for
development of the AGURAM dataset. Map scale of the visual interpretation was set to 1:10,000 or finer. For details
of the platform for visual interpretation, take a look at the reference below.

2. Geometry data of the visual interpretation was converted to raster data by v.to.rast of GRASS GIS with a
resolution of 15 m to remove inconsistencies among and within geometries, such as geometry type (i.e. line and
polygon) and torsion.

3. The raster data was converted to vector data by r.to.vect of GRASS GIS with smoothing option.
