A scientific publication was dedicated to the activities in Tunisia: “Supervised Machine learning for Crop mapping using Sentinel-2 time-series imageries - Case studies in Jendouba and Tunisia” (https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-7998-1954-7.ch008). You also can find it here.
A report on the establishment of the national geoportal for Tunisia was published in June 2021. It is called “Développement d’une plateforme géospatiale dédiée à la diffusion des données cartographiques (Tunisie)” and available here.
Workshop OSS December 15 and 16 2020
National and regional governments are interested in creating the conditions for increasing agricultural production and productivity and reducing risk. Earth observation is an excellent tool to support informed decision-making. With this in mind the Sahara and Sahel Observatory (OSS) held a national workshop for presenting the results of the AfriCultuReS project in Tunisia on December 15 and 16 2020.
