Survey Boundary Maps

The boundaries of the three survey zones (western, central, and eastern) are provided in two GIS formats: Idrisi (Version 14--Kilimanjaro) and GEOTIFF raster files. These are compressed self-extracting files for Windows, and thus must be uncompressed on a computer running the Windows operating system. After downloading, place the files in the desired folder and double click them. Each Idrisi compressed file will produce two files with the same name and the extensions .RST and .RDC. Each GEOTIFF compressed file will produce two files with the same name and the extensions .TIF and .TFW. The cell values in the GIS files are as follows:

For Idrisi files, click here to download the file WESTERN_BOUNDARY_IDRISI.EXE (45 KB) or the file CENTRAL_BOUNDARY_IDRISI.EXE (33 KB) or the file EASTERN_BOUNDARY_IDRISI.EXE (39 KB).

For GEOTIFF files, click here to download the file WESTERN_BOUNDARY_TIFF.EXE (47 KB) or the file CENTRAL_BOUNDARY_TIFF.EXE (35 KB) or the file EASTERN_BOUNDARY_TIFF.EXE (40 KB).

In addition, the central zone was analyzed separately in eastern and western sectors. The division between these two sectors is also provided in two GIS formats: Idrisi (Version 14--Kilimanjaro) and GEOTIFF raster files. These are compressed self-extracting files for Windows, and thus must be uncompressed on a computer running the Windows operating system. After downloading, place the files in the desired folder and double click them. Each Idrisi compressed file will produce two files with the same name and the extensions .RST and .RDC. Each GEOTIFF compressed file will produce two files with the same name and the extensions .TIF and .TFW. The cell values in the GIS files are as follows:

For Idrisi files, click here to download the file CENTRAL_SECTORS_IDRISI.EXE (34 KB).

For GEOTIFF files, click here to download the file CENTRAL_SECTORS_TIFF.EXE (35 KB).
