CARPE Mapper
An interactive web GIS for the Congo Basin
Although much of the forest in the Congo Basin remains relatively intact‚ unsustainable timber exploitation‚ shifting cultivation‚ urban expansion‚ and other human drivers are posing increasing threats to this globally-significant tropical forest resource. CARPE Mapper helps to monitor these threats and assist conservation efforts by providing a focal point for CARPE partners to provide and share spatial information on both land use and conservation activities.
Landscape and Forest Elephant telemetry maps
Four of the 12 landscapes contain Forest
Elephant telemetry data‚ provided by the Wildlife Conservation Society
(WCS). WCS are working with collaborators to deploy a total of 36 GPS
collars across elephant conservation areas in central African forests.
