DE Africa Waterbodies Monitoring Service

The Digital Earth Africa continental Waterbodies Monitoring Service identifies more than 700,000 water bodies from over three decades of satellite observations. This service maps persistent and seasonal water bodies and the change in their water surface area over time. Mapped water bodies may include, but are not limited to, lakes, ponds, man-made reservoirs, wetlands, and segments of some river systems.On a local, regional, and continental scale, this service helps improve our understanding of surface water dynamics and water availability and can be used for monitoring water bodies such as we...非洲数字地球（Digital Earth Africa）大陆尺度水体监测服务基于三十余年的卫星观测数据，识别出超过70万个水体。该服务可绘制常年性与季节性水体的分布，并追踪其水面面积随时间的变化情况。本次绘制的水体类型涵盖但不限于湖泊、池塘、人工水库、湿地以及部分河流水系河段。在局地、区域乃至大陆尺度上，该服务有助于加深我们对地表水体动态变化与水资源可利用量的认知，还可用于监测包括……在内的各类水体。
