Synopsis (short abstract) The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) provides technical support to countries and stakeholders to plan, implement and monitor land, water and crop resources. The Arab Organization for Agricultural Development (AOAD) provides assistance to 22 Arab countries in coordinating agricultural development, including on strengthening technical capacities on the use of GIS/RS. In this context, the Geospatial Unit of the Land and Water Division at FAO and the AOAD jointly organized a virtual technical workshop from 14 to 16 March 2023 on the use of remote sensing and SEPAL platform in support to sustainable land cover and crop type monitoring.
