The forest ecosystems of the Numidian massif of Outka mountain are located in the Central Rif in northern Morocco, and have got, over the past decades, high natural and anthropogenic pressures, leading to observable changes in the forest landscape. The nature and the intensity of these changes remain little known. The objective of this study is to assess the dynamics of the forest landscape of the Outka massif of Outka mountain, and explain their causes, based on a diachronic approach, using the integration and processing of multidate and multisource data, Using GPS and Space Remote Sensing software. The results obtained show a strong regression in the dynamics of the forest.
