1. Management information system Third Year Information Technology Part 08 Geographical Information System Tushar B Kute, Department of Information Technology, Sandip Institute of Technology and Research Centre, Nashik http://www.tusharkute.com

2. Flying Blind Jul 24th 2003 The Economist

3. We Live in Two Worlds Natural World Constructed World Managed Self-Regulating . . . These Are Increasingly In Conflict

4. Managing Places Seeing the Whole Context and Content Watersheds Communities Neighborhoods Districts Patterns Linkages Trends

5. Abstracting the Real World

6. What is GIS? A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based system including software, hardware, people, and geographic information A GIS can: create, edit, query, analyze, and display map information on the computer

7. Geographic Information System Geographic – 80% of government data collected is associated with some location in space Information - attributes, or thecharacteristics (data), can be used to symbolize and provide further insight into a given location System – a seamless operation linking the information to the geography – which requires hardware, networks, software, data, and operational procedures …not just software! …not just for making maps!

8. Who uses GIS? International organizations UN HABITAT, The World Bank, UNEP, FAO, WHO, etc. Private industry Transport, Real Estate, Insurance, etc. Government Ministries of Environment, Housing, Agriculture, etc. Local Authorities, Cities, Municipalities, etc. Provincial Agencies for Planning, Parks, Transportation, etc. Non-profit organizations/NGO’s World Resources Institute, ICMA, etc. Academic and Research Institutions Smithsonian Institution, CIESIN, etc.

9. The possibilities are unlimited… Environmental impact assessment Resource management Land use planning Tax Mapping Water and Sanitation Mapping Transportation routing and more ... What can you do with a GIS?

10. How does a GIS work? GIS data has a spatial/geographic reference This might be a reference that describes a feature on the earth using: a latitude & longitude a national coordinate system an address a district a wetland identifier a road name

11. Very high 3 Scrub 17 Clay Polygon A GIS stores information about the world as a collection of thematic layers that can be linked together by geography Geography and Databases

13. Land Parcels

14. Population

15. Utilities

16. Land Mines

17. Hospitals

18. Refugee Camps

19. Wells

21. Raster Vector Real World Data Representation

22. Other features of a GIS Produce good cartographic products (translation = maps) Generate and maintain metadata Use and share geoprocessing models Managing data in a geodatabase using data models for each sector

23. Hint – having GIS software does not a cartographer make! Good to know something about these issues when creating a map and doing spatial analysis… Scale/Resolution Projection Basic cartographic principles regarding design, generalization, etc.

24. Societal Projects Systems Networks Integrated Coordinated Cooperative Collaborative GIS is (rapidly) evolving

25. GIS as part of your decision making process… Problem Statement – ????? * Geospatial data Ground- Based data Socio- Economic data Other Ancillary data Formulate the question Observe, acquire data * Added Analyze Mitigate and change Seek solutions Diagram courtesy of Michael Goodchild, UCSB

26. Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Definition - the technology, policies, standards, human resources, and related activities necessary to acquire, process, distribute, use, maintain, and preserve spatial data Part of many nation’s e-Gov strategy www.GSDI.org

27. Citizens Inventory Geographic Knowledge The World Decision Support

28. World Summit on Sustainable Development 2002 “Promote the development and wider use of earth observation technologies, including satellite remote sensing, global mapping and geographic information systems, to collect quality data on environmental impacts, land use and land use changes.”

30. Poverty Indicators

31. Monitoring fair trade - local banana farmers

32. GIS for planning underdeveloped areas A Tale of Two Cities The formal and the informal Both deserve GIS… complexity is not an accuse! Source: Rosario Giusti de Perez

33. GIS for planning underdeveloped areas Urban poverty measured in terms of quantity and quality of public space. The lack of public open space. Barrios have a percentage of public space between 5% and 10%. In the average city total space constitute over 30% of the total space. The absence of adequate infrastructure, Urban furniture and maintenance which combined produces unhealthy and insecure conditions. Source: Rosario Giusti de Perez

34. GIS for planning underdeveloped areas DEALING WITH A COMPLEX MORPHOLOGY REQUIERES: Understanding the existing physical order Identifying the social order conformed by community ties and with no physical evidence Transformation capacity is determined through a detailed review of the built form Source: Rosario Giusti de Perez

35. GIS for planning underdeveloped areas Analysis of the social network and community ties Sustainability is preserving the small social groups The social network is topology related. Source: Rosario Giusti de Perez

36. Achieving the MDGs requires all of us… …working together!
