Chad | Land Cover Maps Atlas

This atlas presents the Chad vegetation map, carried out under the "Improving the resilience of the Sahelian populations to environmental changes - REPSAHEL" project, for a sustainable development of natural resources.

1/200,000 maps produced from satellite images (2013) and field observations have been integrated in this work.

It is also a product of the OSS/National Research Support Center (CNAR) partnership. All data used, as well as the derived thematic maps, have been integrated in the REPSAHEL project.

This book is part of other map atlases released for seven Sahelian countries (Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal and Chad), and will contribute to improving knowledge of natural resources and their evolution to help decision-making on programs, projects and adaptation actions to be implemented.
