Urbanisation has had a profound impact in sub-Saharan Africa and can be attributed to the complex human-environment interaction. Knowledge on long-term urbanisation processes in sub-Saharan Africa is lacking. Besides, understanding the urbanisation process in sub-Saharan Africa necessitates to go beyond the global scale to the local scale to unravel the idiosyncrasies in the growth of each city. The perennial lack of data (or data meeting required specifications) is a bottleneck to such studies. Very often, the nature of the available data might present challenges to existing classification algorithms. Moreover, availability of adequate and well-curated reference datasets presents a bottleneck to the generation of accurate land-cover maps. ...
