How to Distinguish
- No official Street View coverage
- As a former French colony, French utility poles and road signs can appear
- Almost the entire country is desert or steppe; trees are rarely seen except along the Niger River in the southeast
The only river with year-round flow is the Niger River in the southwest, so areas with greenery like the photo are almost certainly along the river.
