Somalia Livestock Trade Routes

The Livestock Trade Routes were prepared by combining field Livestock reports on livestock trade routes from the villages to the markets, with the Somalia Roads datasets retrieved from Open Street Maps and the Secondary roads authored by WFP and ADA 2010. The dataset contains a name column that indicates the route from and the the destination market e.g Tallex-Garoowe. In places where a primary road exist, the route was selected however in areas where it is non-existent, the secondary routes was selected instead. The routes are updated as new field data becomes available.
