Land cover is subject to dynamics driven by anthropogenic and natural
alterations. It is possible to monitor cover changes by using time
series of satellite imagery.
Kenya Land Cover Change Analysis
The AFRICOVER land cover database for Kenya (1:200,000 scale) was
used to detect and quantify changes against the available Geocover
set of satellite imagery (three decades, 1980-2000).

the Senegal 2005 Land Cover legend; particular attention was given to
the more sensitive areas such as Forest, Agricultural land and Urban
areas using images taken in two dates: 1990 and 2005.

Libya Land Cover Change Analysis
The land cover change assessment of Libya was conducted as one of the
activities of the "Mapping of Natural Resources for Agricultural Use
and Planning in Libya" (LIB/00/004) project. A comparative analysis
between the land cover visual interpretation of 1980's, 1990's and 2000's
Landsat dataset (MSS, TM, ETM) and Ikonos satellite data was performed.
