Synopsis (short abstract) In Libya there is a need to strengthen national capacities to monitor water consumption and productivity through Remote Sensing and to adopt effective options for increasing water productivity in Fezzan region, as a pilot to be scaled up throughout the country. The impact of this project is that food security in Libya in general and in Fezzan region, in particular, is improved through more performant use of agricultural water.

    Libya is characterized by water scarcity. The land cover map is required to support crop and water productivity in Libya. Sampling design needs to be carried out to identify suitable locations for field surveys to collect data for land cover mapping. Stratification based on changes in vegetation and water productivity is carried out to identify the optimum number of sampling locations in Fezzan, Libya at the parcel level
