  • Frequently asked questions
    • Installation of MISLAND-North Africa
      • What version of Quantum GIS (QGIS) do I need for the toolbox?
      • Do I need to download a 32-bit or 64 bit version of QGIS?
      • How do I install the plugin?
      • How do I upgrade the plugin?
      • How do I uninstall the plugin?
    • Datasets
      • When will you update datasets for the current year?
      • Is there an option to download the original data?
      • Will the toolbox support higher resolution datasets?
    • Methods
      • Who was the default time period for the analysis determined?
      • Productivity
        • How does the result provided by state differs from trajectory?
      • Land cover
        • Currently, the land cover aggregation is done following the UNCCD guidelines, but that classification does not take into account country level characteristics. Could it be possible to allow the user to define the aggregation criteria?
        • How can we isolate woody plant encroachment within the toolbox?
      • Carbon stocks
        • Why use soil organic carbon (SOC) instead of above and below-ground carbon to measure carbon stocks?
        • Is it possible to measure identify processes of degradation linked to salinization using this tool?
    • Land degradation outputs
      • How were the layers combined to define the final land degradation layer?
      • Why do I see areas the data says are improving or degrading when I know they are not?
      • All of the sub-indicators are measuring vegetation: how does this contribute to understanding and identifying land degradation?
    • Future plans
      • When will there be an offline version of the toolbox?
