Its ecosystem soil conservation services are an important guarantee for preventing soil erosion and promoting high-quality development. Using the normalized vegetation index, land cover product MCD12Q1, precipitation data, digital elevation model data, and soil database HWSD v1.1, and the modified universal soil loss equation RUSLE, the soil conservation service dataset for the Yellow River Basin in Gansu was calculated. This dataset, with a spatial range between 33 ° 6 ′ 29 ″ N and 40 ° 0 ′ 6 ″ N and 97 ° 23 ′ 38 ″ E and 108 ° 42 ′ 38 ″ E, covers the period from 2001 to 2015, with units of t • hm-2 • a-1. It provides a scientific basis for developing measures to improve soil conservation services and important data support for evaluating ecological security and constructing ecological security patterns
