Abyei: Sudan Topographic Field Map

The present map was prepared at the request of the 'Intergovernmental Authority on Development' (IGAD) for the 'Abyei Boundaries Commission', whose work is in progress as part of the implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement signed on January 9, 2005. The map and the geodatabase were prepared by the Centre for Development and Environment (CDE) of the University of Berne, Switzerland, with funding from the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. Boundaries, transliteration, settlement locations and the North-South demarcation line of 1956 drawn on this map are not authoritative and should not be considered as such.
