  abstract = {{I}ncreasing interactions between protected and anthropised areas in southern {A}frica create challenges for biodiversity conservation and local development. {A}n improved management of these areas is required to promote the coexistence between human activities, including livestock farming, and wildlife. {R}emote sensing may offer a means to characterize these interfaces across wide areas. {T}his bibliographic review which consist on searching, selecting and analyzing scientific papers related to the study aims to 1) identify the environmental factors impacting the mobility of buffalo ({S}yncerus {C}affer) and cattle ({B}os {T}aurus, {B}os {I}ndicus), two key species for conservation and local development in {S}outhern {A}frica, 2) explore the contribution of remote sensing images to discriminate and characterize, in time and space, the identified factors. {T}he mobility of buffalo and cattle is mainly driven by the availability of water and grazing. {T}hese resources can be discriminated by optical and radar imagery, with a high spatial resolution (10 m) and a high temporal frequency (5 days). {S}econdary environmental factors such as savanna fires and variability of climatic conditions can also be characterized at medium-resolution satellite imagery (250-1000m). {C}urrent remote sensing techniques are useful to map the main environmental factors identified in the literature. {H}owever, human practices and infrastructures (such as boreholes and fences) need also to be taken into account to describe the mobility of buffalo and cattle, which may not be easily achieved using remote sensing alone.},
