The methodology used to produce the map was transparent,\nparticipatory and in line with international standards.\n\nTo develop this map, a mosaic of satellite images (Sentinel 2) from 2020 was\nprocessed via Google Earth Engine and supplemented with data collected in the\nfield, to train a supervised classification algorithm (Random Forest).\nTwo field campaigns were conducted, from 10 November to 9 December 2022 and\nfrom 26 January to 13 February 2023, throughout the country. These missions\ninvolved 33 people from multiple partner organizations because the data\ncollection methods and definitions of certain land use classes\nadopted by stakeholders may sometimes differ.\n\nAs part of the EUDR due diligence process, geolocation data for plots of\nland producing EUDR-relevant products could be overlaid with 2020 forest\ncover data in order to assess the risk that the plot is located in an area\nthat was forested before the 2020 cut-off date. To do this, forest cover\ndata aligned with the FAO definition of forests and the 2020 cut-off date\nis required. The 2020 land cover map of Cote d'Ivoire meets these needs.\nIndeed, the classes in the land cover map can be combined to create a\nforest/non-forest map that is aligned with the FAO definition of forests.\n\nA platform for accessing 2020 land cover data, metadata and the methodology\nhas been developed using ESRI solutions, from Africa GeoPortal, for data\nanalysis and visualization:\n\nThe address is: \u003chttps://bit.ly/carte-ci-2020\u003e\n\nDocumentation:\n\n- [Detailed documentation](https://africageoportal.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/26a717d4c13f4f3db2c6056f7e5c0bab/data)\n\n- [Methodology in French](https://africageoportal.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/76dc18767b89472eb89e8aa54e08a6c9/data)\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n10 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|------------------|-----|-----|------------|------------------|\n| `classification` | 1 | 23 | meters | Land Cover class |\n\n**classification Class Table**\n\n| Value | Color | Description |\n|-------|---------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| 1 | #276300 | Dense forest (Forêt dense) |\n| 2 | #59D757 | Light forest (Forêt claire) |\n| 3 | #569D6E | Forest gallery (Forêt galerie) |\n| 4 | #79CFAD | Secondary forest/degraded forest (Forêt secondaire/forêt dégradée) |\n| 5 | #34734C | Mangrove |\n| 6 | #B4FFAD | Forest plantation/Reforestation (Plantation forestière/Reboisement) |\n| 7 | #6EFA9A | Swamp forest/Forest on hydromorphic soil (Forêt marécageuse/Forêt sur sol hydromorphe) |\n| 8 | #D68589 | Coffee Plantation (Plantation de Café) |\n| 9 | #EBD37F | Cocoa Plantation (Plantation de Cacao) |\n| 10 | #D0E09D | Rubber plantation (Plantation d'Hévéa) |\n| 11 | #E8BEFF | Oil palm plantation (Plantation de Palmier à huile) |\n| 12 | #E751FE | Coconut Plantation (Plantation de Coco) |\n| 13 | #F3BFF2 | Cashew plantation (Plantation d'Anacarde) |\n| 14 | #9DFD00 | Fruit plantation / Arboriculture (Plantation fruitière / Arboricultures) |\n| 15 | #F2F38D | Agricultural development/Other crops/Orchards/Fallow land (Aménagement agricole/Autres cultures/Vergers/Jachères) |\n| 16 | #B6D322 | Tree savannah (Savane arborée) |\n| 17 | #E2FE5F | Shrub formations/ Thickets (Formations arbustives/ Fourrés) |\n| 18 | #F9FDCC | Herbaceous formations (Formations herbacées) |\n| 19 | #4A70C0 | Body of water, Courses and waterways (Plan d'eau, Cours et voies deau) |\n| 20 | #BEFFE8 | Swampy area (Zone marécageuse) |\n| 21 | #D20A02 | Human habitat, Infrastructure (Habitat humain, Infrastructures) |\n| 22 | #DBECEF | Rocky outcrop (Affleurement rocheux) |\n| 23 | #DCDCDC | Bare ground (Sol nu) |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\n[CC-BY-4.0](https://spdx.org/licenses/CC-BY-4.0.html)\n\n### Citations\n\nCitations:\n\n- BNETD Land Cover Map 2020.\n\n### Explore with Earth Engine\n\n| **Important:** Earth Engine is a platform for petabyte-scale scientific analysis and visualization of geospatial datasets, both for public benefit and for business and government users.
