32 The objectives of the FAO-AFRICOVER project are to establish a digital geo-referenced database on land-cover, and a geographic referential (geodesy, toponymy, roads, hydrography) at a 1:250,000 / 1:200,000 scale, for the whole Africa. This base will also be generalized at the 1:1,000,000 scale. A further objective of AFRICOVER is to reinforce and to build up the national and sub-regional capacities for the establishment, update, and operational use of the geographic referential and the geodatabases.
