2. GIS Concepts

3. 3 What is GIS? A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based system including software, hardware, people, and geographic information Different flavors:  Viewers (eg Google Earth) to view data  Full GIS: create, edit, query, analyze, and view data

4. 4 Viewers / Readers/ Web Browsers Mobile GIS Desktop GIS Geo-database Network GIS Software Options Custom Applications GPS GIS Servers Authoring Data Management / Geoprocessing

5. 5 The possibilities are unlimited…  Safeguards identification  Disease Tracking  Precision Agriculture  Land Titling and Registration  Land Use Planning  Facilities Management  Emergency Response  Transportation Analysis  Fisheries Monitoring  Mining  and more... How can geographic tools be used?

6. 6 Who needs access to coordinated geoinformation? A few examples from the Environment Sector:  Land reclamation  Watershed management  Biodiversity conservation  Air pollution monitoring  Climate change modeling  Selecting protected areas  Ecotourism  Forest monitoring

7. 7 How does a GIS work? GIS data has a geo-spatial/geographic reference This is a unique reference that describes a feature on the earth using:  a latitude & longitude  a national coordinate system  an address  an administrative unit  a wetland identifier  a road name

8. 8 A GIS stores information about the world as a collection of thematic layers that can be linked together by geography Polygon 3 Scrub17 Very high Clay Basically: GIS = Geography and Databases

19. Introduction to Spatial Data

20. 20 Spatial Referencing Any location can be expressed as the latitude and longitude A unique and permanent way of identifying location

21. 21 Types of Data Vector  Points, lines (two or more points) and polygons (multiple lines)  Each point is represented by (x,y) co- ordinates corresponding to latitude and longitude Raster  Usually images

22. 22 Raster Vector Real World Data Representation

23. 23 Ways of Collecting Data GPS Surveys  Data collected using Global Positioning System (GPS)  GPS uses satellites and triangulation to get the location Digitizing  Existing maps are converted to digital Aerial Photos and Satellites

24. 24 Principles of GPS Measurement Run by US Department of Defense 24 satellites at 20,200 km altitude Normally 5 satellites can be viewed anywhere in the earth Satellite sends a radio timing signal Time measurements used to establish distance from satellite

25. 25 GPS Locations By observing a minimum of 4 satellites (3 position; 1 for time) location can be established More satellites in view gives better accuracy

26. 26 GPS Accuracy Depends on  The number of satellites in view  The equipment Typical consumer equipment +/- 8 – 10m with 95% confidence Survey grade instruments +/- 2 m or better Accuracy improved by:  Differential correction  Signal from GPS base station or similar

27. 27 DGPS ground station DGPS mobile receiving station GPS satellites Correction signal Space segment Control segment User segment

28. 28 Example of GPS Accuracy Uncorrected: +/- 1.2 – 6.3 m; Corrected: +/- 1.1 – 1.6 m

29. 29 Example of GPS Accuracy - Apia

30. GPS - limitations Building and trees may interfere with signals Achieving higher accuracy is more complex Differential GPS signal is often unavailable and DGPS is expensive BUT for most applications standard accuracies (+/- 10 m or better) is more than adequate

31. Options for Collecting GPS Data

32. 32 Available Equipment Range of different types of GPS equipment available Project field tested different equipment  Handheld GPS receiver  Personal digital assistant  GPS enabled camera All were found to be suitable for use

33. 33 Data Needs GPS data  Point data: data at a single location (x,y)  Continuous data: set of (x,y) data representing a line (eg road) Most preparation and supervision projects need point data Spatially referenced digital photographs valuable

34. 34 Data Definitions AreaIssue Safeguards – Environment (SE) Air Pollution Dust Pollution Noise Pollution Property/Land Damage Water Pollution Other Safeguards – Resettlement (SR) Compensation Level Completion of House Demolition Completion of Land Acquisition Property Replacement Other Engineering (E) Construction Quality Design Issue Safety Issue Other Inventory (I) Clinic/Hospital Casting Yard Construction Camp Materials Storage School Other Important to ensure consistency when defining what data collected Identified simple codes for range of issues

35. 35 Handheld GPS Receivers Many different types available Consumer models cost < $200 Project use Garmin e-Trex  Garmin most widely supported by 3 rd party software  Can store about 10,000 points  12 channels so gives good accuracy

36. 36 Using GPS in household surveys

37. 37 Garmin Findings Robust unit with good battery life (17 h for 2 x AA batteries) Very simple to use in the field  For continuous data travel to site and turn on  Useful to have windscreen mount for unit Not easy to enter point data description

38. 38 Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) Tested Windows based PDA with CF- Card GPS Data Collected with:  Custom software  Data Logging  GPS2Googe Earth

39. 39 PDA - Pocket PC Creations Software designed for rapid development Data ported to access Good for proof-of- concept Several problems:  Was not able to collect continuous data  Difficult to install  Expensive to deploy

40. 40 PDA - GPS Data Logging Many applications store GPS data Simple to use:  Turn on GPS  Software logs data Only disadvantage was inability to store point data

41. 41 PDA - GPS2Google Earth Low cost (<$20) Simple application to record point and continuous data and export GE files Simple to use and with some refinements ideal for Bank data collection

42. 42 Digital Photographs and GPS Digital photos (.JPG files) can have spatial co-ordinates added to header When read into GIS/GE image correctly postioned. Two options  Link digital photos to GPS log data  GPS enabled camera

43. 43 Digital Photos – Linking To GPS Time of photo matched to GPS log data Used Robogeo (v 3) ($50) software After GPS data matched created GE file

44. 44 Robogeo Matching

45. 45 Digital Photos – GPS Camera Camera with embedded GPS records spatial data along with photo Very easy to use Project tested Ricoh Pro-G3

46. 46 Memo Fields Can enter data to be associated with the image using memos These data are stored in the header file and can be viewed with the image

47. 47 Creating Memo Fields Easy to create memo fields  Project ID;  Issue; and,  User Name. Software creates a formatted text file which resides on the camera’s memory card

48. 48 Camera Operation Simple to operate Camera indicates when GPS satellites are locked

49. 49 Output

50. 50 Comparison of 3 Devices Recorded data in same location with Handheld GPS, PDA and GPS Camera Excellent agreement

51. 51 Conclusions Handheld GPS units such as Garmin useful for continuous data collection or paper based recording Ricoh GPS enabled camera an ideal point data collection tool  Simple to use  Has software for processing data Digital camera and handheld good alternative, but requires more tech. skills PDAs can be useful, but less cost- effective than other options
