Funded Activity Summary
PLAGA: Pastoral Lease Assessment using Geospatial Analysis. This project improves the capacity of Natural Resource Management (NRM) and land administration agencies to record, monitor and communicate changes in land condition across the large spatial scales characteristic of rangelands. Pastoralists also benefit through improved capacity to promote, defend, understand and if necessary change their management activities on the basis of scientific data. By further developing and operationalising this new approach to rangeland monitoring in a project integrating human extension expertise, specifically prepared monitoring products, and the associated software, the project will confirm the benefits that satellite technology can provide to land administrators and the grazing industry in monitoring and sustainably managing rangelands.Funded Activity Details
