“…Unquestionably, the development of these Parks will boost job opportunities, alleviate rural poverty, and ultimately boost the nation's economic profile, particularly given that Nigeria is seeking to diversify its economy. Eighteen (18) National Parks span every one of the country's natural zones, except for the ocean habitat. This could be seen in a close look at the Gashaka-Gumti National Park (Figure 8) and the impacts though the rainforest, degraded forest, tropical or subtropical land covers, farmland settlement, waterbody human, settlement, and mountainous landscapes are not grossly affected by anthropogenic influences and natural environmental factors.…”

“…The national forests' natural variety should be preserved, hence the wildlife conservation policy aims to prohibit human activities that are thought to be ineffective in achieving this goal. The grassroots ecological preservation approach has replaced the maintenance approach for some national forests, where it was primarily used many years ago [17][18][19]. This approach allows people (particularly those who live near National Geographic sites) to benefit from parks whether in financial or social capacities [18].…”

Remote sensing (RS) as a landscape planning and management tool for socio-cultural diversity and inclusiveness in protected(reserved) areas through monitoring of the land-use changes, settlement/living patterns, predominant trades/socio-economic activities in the urban-rural locations, and the demography in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The eighteen federal governments recognized nature reserves in Nigeria being the giant of Africa because of their green landscapes, rich biodiversity, and human resources. This study aimed to explore the application of remote sensing to assess the extent of land degradation and encroachment in the 18 recognized national parks in Nigeria. A review of the protection of national parks using remote sensing and monitoring the trend of national park invasions which could either be natural or man-made. The study is in line with the United Nations SDG Goal 15: Life on Land- “Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss”. Located in the West Africa subregion lying on Latitude: 9° 04' 39.90" N (9.077899) and Longitude: 8° 40' 38.84" E (8.677599), with an estimated population of over 220,000,000 people. This study through an intensive review of various literature adopted a mixed approach for the analysis and assessment of the geospatial data, the updated aerial photographs obtained through the Landsat imageries (Google Earth Pro, 2023), and the use of GIS for Geospatial analysis which enables the collection and analysis of spatial and geographic data gathering land use/land covers (LULC) maps, soil type, and elevation maps. While exploring the geophysical ecology and biodiversity conservation of some selected national parks in Nigeria, while also providing cost-effective alternatives for biodiversity monitoring and conservation strategy development. A review of national implementation strategies on biodiversity conservation with the deployment of remote sensing technologies, it is now feasible to obtain large details of the surface of the planet without conducting arduous field activities with the assistance of the availability of multi-date, multi-resolution, multi-sensor aerial information to help prevent for encroachment, loss, and degradation of the natural landscapes.
