National Forest Demarcation & Bio-Physical Resource Inventory Project Vijay Datadin GIS & Data Management Specialist Banana Industry Trust/ Ministry of Agriculture, Lands, Forestry & Fisheries

The Saint Lucia Forestry Department has embarked on a process … new forest sector management plan. National Forest Demarcation & Bio-Physical Resource Inventory Project Banana Industry Trust/ Ministry of Agriculture, Lands, Forestry & Fisheries Important in the management plan will be redefining the department’s mission to conform to an ecosystem approach to the management of forest resources.

Prerequisites to plan formulation and implementation are delineation of the forest resource, and determining the quantity and quality/ nature/ characteristics of the biophysical resources. National Forest Demarcation & Bio-Physical Resource Inventory Project Banana Industry Trust/ Ministry of Agriculture, Lands, Forestry & Fisheries To plan what to do where, you’ve got to know where is what.

What is GIS? Geographic Information System Data-crunching power of a database Communication ability of a map Humans think spatially. GIS works spatially.

What is GIS? Since it is an Information System Hardware – PCs, GPS Software – ArcGIS; IDRISI, ERDAS, ILWIS Dedicated personnel – it is a speciality Institutionalised protocols/ procedures

What has the GIS been used for in this project? Planning fieldwork Rapid reporting and quality control Final reports Integration of surveys Integration of other data Analysis
