Nigeria Environment Tracker

Flooding, climate change, desertification, pollution, deforestation, and oil spills — the environmental cost of Nigeria's growth.

Data Pipeline Pending
Phase 2 — Environment data integration in progress
The following metrics will be tracked once data sources are connected:
Flooding incidents by state (seasonal)
Desertification rate (km²/year lost)
Oil spill count and volume (NNPC / NOSDRA)
Deforestation rate (FAO / Global Forest Watch)
Air quality index (AQI) for major cities
Plastic and industrial pollution indices
Climate change vulnerability score by state

What Nigeria Environment Tracker Covers

Nigeria faces severe environmental challenges — from oil spills in the Niger Delta to desertification in the north and flooding across multiple states. This tracker will monitor the data that matters.

Nigeria Flood Tracker

Seasonal flooding across Nigerian states — displaced persons, affected LGAs, infrastructure damage, and early warning data from NIHSA and NEMA.

Nigeria Oil Spill Tracker

Reported oil spills in the Niger Delta — volume, location, responsible operator, cleanup status, and impact on communities. NOSDRA data.

Nigeria Deforestation Tracker

Forest cover loss across Nigeria's biodiversity hotspots — Cross River, Ogun, Ondo, and Taraba. Satellite-derived data from Global Forest Watch.
