Geo-referenced point database on dams in Southern Eastern Asia. This dataset is described extensively on the AQUASTAT website at https://www.fao.org/aquastat/en/databases/dams. On this website, the dataset is also published in Excel to facilitate the publication of information on dams without geographical co-ordinates. It is accompanied by an explanatory document that provides specific information about the references used, and brief notes on the more complicated dams. For shapefile description, please see the READ ME in the zip file. **Data publication:** 2013-06-24 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [AQUASTAT](mailto:aquastat@fao.org) **Data lineage:** More information on this data on the AQUASTAT Website at https://www.fao.org/aquastat/en/databases/dams **Resource constraints:** This work is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license (CC-BY-4.0) **Online resources:** Download - Dams in the Southern Eastern Asia (ESRI shapefile) Geo-referenced dam databases on AQUASTAT website

This dataset provides authoritative boundaries for protected areas within the FAO TCP/IVC/3908 Area of Interest in Côte d’Ivoire, covering the Centre, Nord, and Nord‑Est agropoles (approx. 134,614 km², ~41.75% of national territory). It identifies 84 protected areas—82 classified forests and 2 national parks: Parc national de la Comoé (Bounkani Region) and Parc national d’Abokouamékro (Yamoussoukro Autonomous District). Designed to support Hand‑in‑Hand investment targeting and land‑use planning, the data enable risk‑informed rural development while safeguarding critical ecosystems and restoration zones. Intended uses include project siting, due diligence, and policy analysis across agriculture, infrastructure, and conservation. **Data creation:** 2025-08-07 **Data publication:** 2026-07-08 **Supplemental Information:** Objective: support prioritized investment planning tied to food security, climate resilience, and wealth creation, using advanced geospatial analytics and partnerships under FAO’s Hand‑in‑Hand approach. **Citation:** FAO.
