The dataset covers 80 target villages across Phongsaly, Oudomxay, and Xiengkhuang Provinces, Lao PDR. The identification of irrigated areas primarily considers agricultural areas located within low-lying areas and river floodplains, based on available high-resolution satellite imagery. The United Nations Satellite Centre's own very-high-resolution satellite imagery digitization fills data voids where open-source and government data are missing or incomplete, to support the Village Development Plan (VDP) process under the GeoCLEAR project. To support village-level baseline analysis (livelihoods, infrastructure, and hazard-exposure context) for the CLEAR project's 80 target villages, filling data voids where open-source and government data are missing, for the Village Development Plan (VDP) process.

The United Nations Satellite Centre is not the owner of the original source data and is not responsible for any misuse of this data. Features were reviewed and refined through visual interpretation of high-resolution satellite imagery at an approximate scale of 1:4,000; positional accuracy is limited by this interpretation scale and by the quality of the underlying source data. Data were refined specifically around the central locations of the 80 target villages to support village-level analysis and are not a comprehensive province-wide or national dataset. vector eng planningCadastre inlandWaters 100.949735 104.173934 19.269717 22.481641 true IrrigatedArea attribute definitions 2026-10-26 creation dataset Irrigated area data derived from the Department of Agricultural Land Management (DLAM, formerly DALaM), under the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, Lao PDR.
