EXPERIMENTAL ECOSYSTEM NATURAL CAPITAL ACCOUNTS IN THE REPUBLIC OF GUINEA

Larger ecological zones and wildlife corridors in sub-Saharan Africa require monitoring, as social and economic demands put high pressure on them. Copernicus’ Hot-Spot Monitoring service developed a satellite-imagery-based monitoring workflow to map such areas. Here, we present a total of 560 442 km² from which 153 665 km² is mapped with eight land cover classes while 406 776 km² is mapped with up to 32 classes. Besides presenting the thematic products, we also present our validation datasets.
