4.2.1 L<strong>and</strong> Use Mapping<br />

76. These base maps should include urban areas <strong>and</strong> rural communes, show built-up <strong>and</strong><br />

non-built up areas, <strong>and</strong> highlight areas <strong>and</strong> direction of observed rapid urban expansion based<br />

on comparison of time series data.<br />

77. The objective of “map generation” is to generate multi-temporal base GIS maps of the<br />

Dakar Metropolitan Area from satellite imagery, depicting built-up areas, the nature of major<br />

infrastructure <strong>and</strong> areas with rapid urban expansion as well as non-built up areas such as<br />

agriculture <strong>and</strong> forests. The project should generate comparable information as input to<br />

diagnostics for urban extent <strong>and</strong> peri-urban expansion in the Dakar Metropolitan Area. GIS<br />

maps should show the status <strong>and</strong> development of l<strong>and</strong> cover/use within the area for three<br />

points in time, i.e. 1988, 1999, <strong>and</strong> 2008. In order to create multi-temporal base GIS maps for<br />

the Dakar Metropolitan Area three different acquisition dates within the last 3 decades were<br />

considered.<br />

78. Mapping started with the most recent satellite data with the highest spatial resolution<br />

(SPOT satellite image 2008 with 2.5 meter resolution). Technical procedures are based on<br />

automated object-based classification to detect specific l<strong>and</strong> cover elements, complemented<br />

by GIS-based post-processing <strong>and</strong> visual image interpretation to add additional l<strong>and</strong><br />

cover/use classes that need detailed on-screen investigation <strong>and</strong> verification. Additional<br />
