Desertification and Risk Analysis Using High and Medium Resolution Satellite Data Training Workshop on Mapping Desertification /

This publication collects the results of a practical experience of survey, through the direct control of satellite images from high to medium resolution, over areas subjected to desertification problems. The problems of the local population are closely tied to the equilibrium in the management of th...
