| Sumario: | The Statistics from Space project (SFS) seeks to support the Government of Mozambique to produce and disseminate accurate crop production statistical data leveraging satellite remote-sensing data and artificial intelligence augmented analytics. The project, funded by the Government of the Republic of Korea (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs; MAFRA), aims to provide the Mozambican Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development with production estimates of major crops across three provinces namely Gaza, Manica and Nampula in a sufficiently timely manner so that all market participants can use the information for decision-making. SFS is a three years project and has four main components: (1) Stakeholders engagement for impacts, led by International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI); (2) Enhanced area sampling frame led by ITC/University of Twente; (3) Digital collection of groundtruthing data, led by Centre of Excellence in Agri-Food Systems and Nutrition (CE-AFSN) at Eduardo Mondlane University; and (4) Analytical framework, led by Seoul National University (SNU). This Report is part of component 3 of the SFS project and has an overall objective to depict the activities carried out during the enumerators training that took place in Maputo, Manica and Zambezia provinces as the prior phase for the field data collection process in Gaza, Manica and Zambezia provinces.
