Methodology

BioGenerator uses Dry Matter Productivity DMP product retrieved from SPOT-VGT, PROBA-V and SENTINEL-3 and distributed by COPERNICUS Global Land Service to compute annual biomass production anomalies over Sahel.

BioGenerator utilise le produit DMP de productivité de la matière sèche extrait de SPOT-VGT, PROBA-V et SENTINEL-3 et distribué par COPERNICUS Global Land Service pour calculer les anomalies de production annuelle de biomasse au Sahel.

Caveats / Comments

This is a gridded 1km dataset of annual biomass production (Dry Matter Productivity) in West Africa from 1999 to the present. The data includes a mean, comprising of the average production from 1999 to the present. Each pixel value is expressed in kilogrammes of dry matter per hectare (kg/ha). The data is produced from 10-day images of DMP from SPOT-VEGETATION 4&5, PROBA-V and SENTINEL-3 satellites. The yearly dataset is produced by Action contre la Faim using the BioGenerator software. More information on th BioGenerator is available here: https://sigsahel.info/en/knowledgebase/

Il s'agit d'un ensemble de données maillées de 1 km sur la production annuelle de biomasse (productivité de la matière sèche) en Afrique de l'Ouest de 1999 à nos jours. Les données comprennent une moyenne, comprenant la production moyenne de 1999 à aujourd'hui. Chaque valeur de pixel est exprimée en kilogrammes de matière sèche par hectare (kg/ha). Les données sont produites à partir d'images de 10 jours de DMP des satellites SPOT-VEGETATION 4&5, PROBA-V et SENTINEL-3. Le jeu de données annuel est produit par Action contre la Faim à l'aide du logiciel BioGenerator.
