Eritrea Livelihood Zones

Anthropogenic biomes, also known as anthromes or human biomes, are ecosystems significantly altered by human activity. They represent the terrestrial biosphere in its contemporary, human-modified form, using global ecosystem units defined by patterns of sustained human interaction. These biomes are categorized based on factors like population density and agricultural practice

Livelihood zone maps define geographic areas of a country where people generally share similar options for obtaining food and income and similar access to markets. An understanding of geographic livelihood systems is a key component in Vulnerability Assesment for both Drought and Floods - The livelihood zones of resolution approximately 5000 metres ( 0.05×0.05)   Referenced  September 2019

This dataset contains the most up to date version of GLW 4 for the reference year 2020 for the following species: buffalo, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs and chicken. The individual species datasets are available at global extent and 5 minutes of arc resolution (approx. 10 km at the equator). The layers contain the density of animals per km², with weight estimated by the Random Forest model. The livestock species modelled include: buffaloes, cattle, chickens, goats, pigs and sheep

The dataset contains global crop at 0.0089286 deg resolution (about 1 squared kilometer).

Settlements and residential areas: named cities, towns, villages, suburbs, and residential land (`place=*` and `landuse=residential`). Useful for demographic context, settlement-level targeting, and population analysis. 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: place, landuse - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT

This dataset provides a spatial mask of Ethiopia rangelands, identifying areas dominated by grasslands, shrublands, and sparse vegetation that are primarily used for grazing and pastoral livelihoods. The rangeland mask for Ethiopia delineates regions where pastoralism and agro-pastoralism are prevalent, helping distinguish these land systems from croplands, forests, or urban areas. The dataset is derived from a combination of remote sensing data and land cover classifications, ensuring consistency across ecological zones-
