EU EDF9 C-Envelope Project “Supporting disaster risk reduction in Pacific Overseas Countries & Territories”

Project outline aim - to discover how best to harvest & store water Water asset assessment and mapping Develop designs – calculate effective catchment areas Building Survey – add to Pacific Exposure Database Possible site locations RTK Survey – Collection of Reference Image Points

Water asset assessment and mapping

Develop designs Timber tank acts as a header tank for the health centre Total contributing area of building at this location is 128 m 2

Attributes Pulau School Building Survey

Reference Image Points

Potential measures to improve water quality and quantity Further rainwater harvesting improvements Installation of additional large storages for agricultural use Clearing of trees to enhance spring flows Soil erosion control measures

Any questions ??
