FAO Senior Officers Information Forum ? January, 2005 Global livestock mapping: from data collection to information dissemination FAO Senior Officers Information Forum ? January, 2005

Outline Overview of FAO’s livestock information system Data collection Livestock modelling Information dissemination Applications of global livestock distributions

FAO’s livestock information system SALB / UNCS OGC - compatible ISO metadata FAOSTAT GeoNetwork (KIDS) Agro-MAPS EMPRES-I Sub-national livestock data Sub-national admin. boundaries Livestock disease data Livestock prod. coefficients Oracle Database GLiPHA Livestock modelling Livestock sector reports Ad hoc queries and reports

Data collection Sub-national administrative boundaries Standards and codes (UNCS, SALB, FAO-SDRN) Sub-national livestock data Global network of data providers Statistical year books, project contacts, Internet Data verification - link to FAOSTAT Livestock disease data OIE standards Livestock production coefficients Regional estimates

Livestock modelling Sub-national numbers from database Area suitable for livestock (slope, land-use etc.) Sub-national “Observed” densities Environmental predictor variables (5 km rasters) Ecological zonation (cluster analysis) Multivariate models for each zone “Predicted” density of livestock Adjust to observed totals where available Adjust to FAOSTAT 2000 national totals

Cattle in Africa - Observed

Cattle in Africa - Predicted

Information dissemination Database query Livestock sector reports Ad hoc queries and reports Web-based information dissemination GLiPHA GeoNetwork Output to other FAO applications (planned?) EMPRES-I Agro-MAPS FAOSTAT (2)

GeoNetwork on the Web FAO’s portal for hosting and sharing georeferenced thematic information Provides a common metadata structure and search facility through which geographic (map) outputs can be searched for and downloaded by users Claudia should be able to produce some additional, more relevant slides
