5 Planning and future tasks Contribution and support to WP5: development of a WEB-GIS interface to display the location and boundaries of four study areas by means of map services well-known and widely used (responsible: me) Support to WP8 for the scenarios (responsible: Faycal) WP2 almost completed and delivered Report activity (responsible: Faycal) table

Kolhapur, India, January 2011, Consortium Meeting 6 Future tasks Now the WEB-GIS allow to visualize for each study area an intuitive location map with few data: BASIN WATER BODIES AND RIVERS PROTECTED AREAS The WEB-GIS is directly accessible from Livediverse Website ( )

Kolhapur, India, January 2011, Consortium Meeting 7 Future tasks The WEB-GIS will host additional spatial information (to be discussed) as: Ecological vulnerability Socio-economic vulnerability Cultural-spiritual vulnerability Others We need to precisely define which additional data to include. include some final maps of vulnerability indexes that will allow an easy and intuitive comparison of same data between different case study areas …… but… data should be standardized for all four areas (WP5)
