DegradedSites
The degraded dataset by NRM FAO-KSA provides a detailed and comprehensive view of the areas within Saudi Arabia that are experiencing environmental degradation. This dataset is meticulously crafted using satellite imagery, ground surveys, and historical environmental data to accurately delineate regions affected by various forms of degradation like deforestation, overgrazing, and unsustainable agricultural practices. The dataset not only identifies the degraded areas but also categorizes the severity and type of degradation, which is instrumental for researchers, policymakers, and environmental planners in prioritizing intervention areas and formulating effective restoration strategies. Through its precise mapping, the dataset aims to assist in combating desertification, preserving biodiversity, and enhancing the resilience of ecosystems in the face of climate change.
