This document discusses analyzing the drivers of landcover and landuse change in western Kenya over the last 30 years. The objectives are to develop robust measures of landuse/landcover change and identify potential drivers. Quickbird imagery is being used to inventory agroforestry components and efficiently select sentinel landscapes and sites. Georeferenced 1983 aerial photos are being used along with recent climate data to quantify system dynamics over time for future monitoring. Challenges include estimating locations of ungeoreferenced samples and comparing remote sensing platforms. Preliminary results will be reported along with requirements for further study of the entire area.
