Clark University: Cambodia aquaculture and coastal habitat land-cover maps

What is available

Cambodia archive acquired and validated. Pond and coastal-wetland polygons are extracted for 1999, 2014, 2018, 2020 and 2022; the map includes a year selector.

Findings and interpretation

• The original classifications distinguish mangroves, coastal wetlands, aquaculture ponds, water and other land cover. Mapped ponds are not confirmation of present farm operation.
• The archive labels its 2018 raster v4, while the provider download page labels it v5. The map retains the actual downloaded filename; this version discrepancy needs provider clarification.
