Lineage statement
These polygons were digitized through a combination of methodologies, originally using VHR satellite imagery and GPS points collected in the field, verified and amended according to Shelter-CCCM Sector, RRRC, Camp in Charge (CiC) officers inputs, with technical support from other partners.
The camps are continuously expanding, and Camp Boundaries are structured around the GoB, RRRC official governance structure of the camps, taking into account the potential new land allocation. The database is kept as accurate as possible, given these challenges.
