WOCAT Earth Engine Apps
15. November 2023
Mapping land degradation is complex due to diverse drivers, processes, and perceptions across time and space. WOCAT has developed cloud-based, user-friendly apps that integrate global, national, and local data to support evidence-based planning, participatory mapping, and monitoring towards LDN. These tools apply the principle of Convergence of Evidence, making land degradation mapping more accessible and actionable.
