Crops Research Institute for the
Semi-Arid-Tropics (ICRISAT) Geospatial
Unit in Patancheru, India, have
developed land use maps of Africa
RISING project intervention sites in
southern Mali.
The new maps, which were produced in
mid-August 2015, will ease the process of
identifying and visualizing different crop
domains and possible natural resource
management (NRM) sites within the
Africa RISING intervention villages in
Mali. The maps were produced using
high resolution imagery from NASA and
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA).
“These maps will show us where to
focus our sustainable intensification
efforts in Mali; they will also guide
preparation of country strategies
for sustainable primary productivity,”
explains Birhanu Zemadim. “We
will use the ground survey data
they provide to prepare geospatial
products associated with land use/land
cover, crop intensity, length of growing
periods, land use changes over the
period, and NRM technologies.” he
