Cote D Ivoire water data

Water features across the area: rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds, and water bodies tagged with `waterway`, `water`, or `natural=water`. Useful for flood-risk modelling, watershed analysis, and environmental basemap context. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: waterway, water, natural - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT

Water resources and water infrastructure in Cote dIvoire including rivers, lakes, boreholes, wells and water points. Use this layer for water access analysis, WASH programme planning, drought monitoring, flood risk assessment, and water resource management.

This dataset represents dams and water reservoirs located within the priority Hand‑in‑Hand agropoles (Centre, Nord, Nord‑Est) of Côte d’Ivoire, as identified in the TCP/IVC/3908 geospatial study. These water infrastructures support irrigation, livestock production, and local agricultural development. The data enable analysis of water‑resource availability in the agropoles and inform planning for resilient, productivity‑enhancing rural investments. **Data creation:** 2025-08-07 **Data publication:** 2026-07-08 **Supplemental Information:** Compiled under the TCP/IVC/3908 geospatial analysis, this dataset complements thematic layers on agriculture, infrastructure, and natural resources used in the Hand‑in‑Hand platform to guide evidence‑based planning within the Centre, Nord, and Nord‑Est agropoles. **Citation:** FAO.
