| Abstract
|
This dataset is an aggregated version of the original national Africover landcover multipurpose database.
A 26-class legend is used to aggregate the classes present in the original full resolution, multipurpose landcover database.
A single legend is applicable to the eight trypanosomiasis-affected countries mapped during Africover project (Burundi,
Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Rwanda, Somalia, Sudan, Uganda and United Republic of Tanzania).

| Purpose
|
Thematic aggregation has been performed by the Programme Against African Trypanosomiasis (PAAT) to support mapping of tsetse
