- <p>This study constructed a spatiotemporal dataset of expressway encroachment on plantation and natural forests in China from 1995 to 2020. Based on six periods of expressway network data, plantation and natural forest distribution data, and multi-temporal remote sensing images, spatial overlay analysis was conducted to extract the segments of newly added expressways that directly encroached on the two forest types within each five-year interval. The encroachment length and spatial distribution for each period were then calculated. The dataset shows that the total length of expressways encroaching on plantation forests was 52,703 km, accounting for 72% of the total encroached length, significantly higher than that on natural forests (20,343 km). This dataset provides direct data support for revealing the spatiotemporal patterns of expressway encroachment on forests, quantifying edge effects, and comparing the recovery capacity and sensitivity between plantation and natural forests.</p>
