The Land Use Land Cover and Change Mapping Service was designed to provide governments with data, tools, and skills to better understand relevant intervention actions related to land conservation and management, ensuring that land resources can be efficiently monitored and regulated.
Monitoring land cover change over time is essential to understanding ecosystem health, biodiversity, forest carbon cycling, and much more. Land cover/land use (LCLU) data and maps are critical components for climate monitoring applications such as Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions reports.
The crucial role forests play in our world cannot be underestimated. To enhance preservation and monitoring of this natural resource, SERVIR and SilvaCarbon launched a series of global workshops this year in West Africa, Eastern and Southern Africa, Hindu-Kush Himalaya, and the Lower Mekong region on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) applications.
This service supports Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR), is a low-cost land restoration technique used to combat poverty, hunger, and Sahara desert encroachments amongst low-income farmers by increasing ecosystem services; and resilience to climate extremes.
This service is the outcome of a discussion held during the 2018 West Africa Regional Conference on Land Cover Land Use, at which SERVIR West Africa established the West Africa Land Cover Task Force.
