	<span style="line-height:1.5;">In the coastal South region of Cameroon, 26.000 ha of land once covered
by forest is doomed by the development of a significant infrastructure: the </span><span style="line-height:1.5;">Kribi Agro-Industrial and Urban Port Complex.
Important earthwork was undertaken to set-up this ˇ°structuring projectˇ± which
is presented as the ultimate propeller for the industrialization of the entire
Central Africa region. This paper is the first of a series aiming to use
pixel-based digital image differencing to determine the footprint of the Kribi
Agro-Industrial and Urban Port Complex at its present stage of development.
Hopefully it triggers sound decisions and awareness on the fate of this biome,
part of the Congo Rainforest.</span>
