Morocco's geospatial data

·National

Annual 10 m land-cover and land-use series for Morocco from 2017 through 2025, produced by Impact Observatory, Microsoft and Esri from Sentinel-2 L2A imagery. Each pixel contains one of the nine official thematic codes; these nominal codes must never be averaged. The COGs cover the national territory as one continuous extent, including the southern regions. The classification is a model estimate and should be checked against imagery for local analysis or fine-scale change detection.

·National

Slope aspect calculated from the GEDTM30 DEM on a 30 m metric grid covering all of Morocco, including southern regions. Values are expressed in degrees clockwise from north and should be combined with slope to identify flat areas.

·National

Local slope angle in degrees, calculated from the GEDTM30 DEM on a 30 m metric grid covering all of Morocco, including southern regions. This derived layer is suitable for regional analyses of terrain, erosion, runoff, and planning constraints.

·National

Estimated bare earth elevation at about 30 m resolution for all Morocco, including southern regions. GEDTM30 merges multiple elevation models and ICESat-2/GEDI observations using machine learning to reduce the influence of buildings, vegetation, and artifacts. This national COG is suited for web visualization and regional analyses, without replacing topographic or LiDAR surveys

·National

Slope orientation calculated from the Copernicus DEM GLO-30 on a 30 m metric grid. The national COG covers Morocco continuously, including southern regions. Values are clockwise azimuths from north and should be interpreted together with slope to distinguish flat terrain

·National

Modeled classification of the most probable WRB reference soil group at approximately 250 m resolution for all of Morocco, including southern regions. Each pixel contains a class code from 0 to 29; these codes are categorical and do not represent quantity or quality order. This layer is suitable for national and regional context but does not replace a field soil map.

·National

USDA soil texture class of fine earth at about 250 m for different depths, derived from average fractions of sand, silt, and clay predicted by SoilGrids. The layer covers Morocco with a continuous national extent, including southern regions. This is a modeled classification, not a laboratory analysis performed on each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of soil organic carbon at approximately 250 m resolution for the 0–5 cm depth, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel

·National

SoilGrids prediction of silt at approximately 250 m for the 0–5 cm depth, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement taken at each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of sand content at approximately 250 m resolution for different depths, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of soil pH in water at approximately 250 m for different depths, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement taken at each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of organic carbon stock 0–30 cm at approximately 250 m resolution for the 0–30 cm depth, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of organic carbon density at approximately 250 m resolution for the 0–5 cm depth, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement taken at each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of total nitrogen at approximately 250 m for different depths, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of clay at approximately 250 m for different depths, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement taken at each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of coarse fragments at approximately 250 m for the 0–5 cm depth, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement taken at each pixel

·National

SoilGrids prediction of cation exchange capacity at pH 7 at approximately 250 m for different depths, covering all of Morocco including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel.

·National

SoilGrids prediction of fine earth bulk density at approximately 250 m for different depths across Morocco, including southern regions. This is a modeled average based on soil profiles and environmental covariates, not a laboratory measurement for each pixel.

·National

Local slope calculated in degrees from the Copernicus DEM GLO-30 DTM on a 30 m metric grid. The COG covers all of Morocco in a single extent, including southern regions. This derived layer is suitable for analyzing relief, erosion, agriculture, accessibility, and runoff at the regional scale.

·National

Surface elevation at approximately 30 m resolution for the continuous national extent of Morocco.
