The Gambia River course is from OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0, via WaterwayMap.org: https://waterwaymap.org/river/Gambia%20000244288927/ and https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright. Its available mapped mainstem extends to the Atlantic estuary. The Niger geometry includes available Natural Earth mainstem and lake centerlines; not every delta distributary is shown. The Bafing ends at the Senegal confluence, and the Senegal continues to the Atlantic.

Coordinates are approximate educational locations. Rivers are generalized and maps do not establish navigation routes, current access, opening hours or safety. Photograph sources and licences are linked with each image.
