It is, however, necessary in order to understand, spatialize, monitor, assess, and anticipate the complex dynamics of desertification. This article presents the imagined approach and the software platform prototype entitled SIELO (information system for operational desertification monitoring at the local scale) to address this scientific issue. This system attempts to create the link between i) spatialized indicators of desertification risks, built in connection with the systematic complexity of desertification and ii) observed Land Cover Change. The first type of data arises from systematic models already implemented in a pre-existing tool, the LEIS model. The second type of data is extracted from satellite images acquired according to regular time steps. The proposed approach is based on the spatializing of knowledge, via the “landscape” tool in particular. In this article we describe the proposed approach and its specificities that can lead to feeding operational assessment and monitoring of desertification within the framework of local scale observatories. We illustrate the feasibility and the operational effectiveness of its implementation with an initial application in a Tunisian dry zone via a developed software prototype (SIELO v1.0).
