WaPOR, remote sensing for water productivity

Workshop on the use of WaPOR data to support Pastoralism in Mali

Hybrid Event, 14/07/2022

Following the online workshop that was held last year in August for GIS experts in Mali, this in-person workshop will take place in Bamako, and will gather pastoralism and GIS experts around the purpose of creating an Google Earth Engine app based on WaPOR data that can support transhumance herders in the Sudano-Sahelian belt. This workshop is another step in the process of co-developing such solutions initially made possible by the collaboration of two FAO Multi-disciplinary Fund projects: “Improving land and water productivity in the Sudano-Sahelian belt” and “Strengthening resilience of pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in the Sahel through innovative tools and improved data”.
