Copyright Text: This vector layer represents the subdivision of the DRC into a provincial entity. The province is the first subdivision of the country, followed by District, Territory and Sector respectively. These data were produced by Working Group and used by the WRI / CARPE Project for the production of the Interactive Forest Atlas of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Description: This vector layer represents the watercourses of the DRC. It was first produced by the Inventory and Forest Management Directorate on the basis of large-scale interpretation (1 / 50,000) of Landsat satellite imagery, followed by technicians from the Provincial Environment Coordinators of Bandundu, Ecuador and P. Orientale as part of the Spatial Information Management System (SyGIS) project. The attribute table was filled with the basic maps of the Geographical Institute of the Congo, extracts of forest title maps deposited by the loggers and the field knowledge of the MECNDD agents. The original cartographic data was produced with the technical support of World Resources Institute (WRI). The Scope of the dataset is national. The accuracy of the data depends on the data source.

Description: This theme indicates the geographical limits of the forest concessions in which the holder has the right to harvest, the timber harvested for processing or export for a period of 25 years as provided for in Law No. 011/2002 of 29 August 2002 on Code Forest. The original cartographic data have been produced by the Directorate of Forest Inventories and Management (DIAF), the Directorate of Forest Management (DGF) with the support of the World Resources Institute (WRI) Forest concession contract. These data have been used by the WRI / CARPE Project for the production of the Interactive Forest Atlas of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Nevertheless, the limits of certain concessions are being harmonized between the administration and the loggers. This layer represents the status of the 2014 forest concession contracts.
