SADC Regional Harmonization Programme (RHAP)
SADC region After a decade of largely unsustainable development in southern Africa the livelihoods and lives of many people and the economic prospects of most countries continue to be threatened by environmental degradation and inequitable development.

Most SADC countries now face a series of critical demographic, social, economic, agricultural, energy, technological, and institutional transitions in order to move toward development that is economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable.

This project aims at establishing a methodology for the acquisition of land cover data using satellite remote sensing technology as a vehicle for rapid collection of current detailed land information.
