1 Existing GIS Resources on the Indus Basin Workshop on Spatial Information Analysis for the Sustainable Management of the Indus Basin in Pakistan May 26-27, 2003
2 Elements of Existing GIS Resources Data Data Collecting Institutions Databases Institutions involved in GIS Applications Spatial Information Resources
3 Climate Water Topography Soil Vegetation Crops Socio-economic Data
4 Data Collecting Institutions Climate PMD, WAPDA, PADs, PIDAs Water WAPDA, PIDAs, PADs Topography SOP Soil SSP, WAPDA, PADS Vegetation PFDs Crops PADs, MINFAL, BOS Socio-economic- PDD, EAD, PPDDs
5 Database 1 st right of database development is by data collecting institutions Types of Databases Thematic databases Sectoral databases Integrated databases
6 Thematic Databases Climate Salinity Waterlogging Erosion Pollution Population Poverty
7 Sectoral Databases Water Land Vegetation Crops Livestock Fisheries
8 Integrated Databases Rechna Doab of Indus basin by IWMI HKH region of Pakistan for management of natural resources by PARC (WRRI-NARC) Indus basin by WAPDA Landuse Planning at national level by MINE
9 Rechna Doab Gross area 2.97 million ha Cultivable area 2.3 million ha Rice, cotton and fodders dominating in Kharif Wheat and fodders dominating in Rabi Objective integrated water resource management
10 HKH Region Himalaya-Karakuram-Hindukush region Covering around 70% area of Pakistan Base map using scale of 1:250,000 Balochistan part of HKH database completed 44% area of Pakistan
11 Landuse Planning Digitization of Pakistan s Map of 1:500,000 by SOP Digitization of 1:500,000 topographic maps by SOP Development of mosaic by SUPARCO for Indus basin using LANDSAT-TM data of 1999 Networking between main actors Data collecting institutions Institutions involved in application
12 Applied Resources Drought management Characterization of climate and climatic analysis Hydrology Groundwater assessment and management
13 Applied Resources Water Management in Indus basin Salinity Management Landcover and landuse analysis Watershed management Environmental management
14 Drought Management Assessment of drought prone areas of Pakistan
15 Characterization of Climate and Climatic Analysis Agro-climatic zonation Spatial and temporal analysis of rainfall in canal commands
16 Hydrology Estimation of evaporation using NOAA-AVHRR data in Pakistan Hydrological mapping for selection of potential dugwell sites Glaciers, glacier lakes and glacial outbursts resource inventory for Pakistan
17 Groundwater Assessment and Management Spatial and temporal assessment of groundwater recharge Groundwater quality
18 Water Management in Indus Basin GIS metadata for an irrigation system Water performance indicators using satellite imagery
19 Salinity Management Waterlogging and salinity management in the Sindh province Salinity management in Rechna Doab
20 Landcover and Landuse Analysis Landcover analysis for Pakistan using NOAA-AVHRR data Landcover and landuse for Shahpur dam
21 Watershed Management and Environmental Conservation Integrated catchment and command area management Land degradation analysis Seepage of Kalabagh dam and associated environmental hazards
22 Key Issues End users facing difficulty in access to available information with different data collecting institutions Information scattered among number of provincial and federal institutions Lack of systematic databases digital databases not yet started
23 Key Issues Lack of coordination between data collection and users institutions is a major handicap in building water informatics Shortage of manpower trained for application of Space Informatics in water sector High turn-over of trained manpower
24 Key Issues Lack of realization of potential benefits of Space Informatics Ineffective linkages between water sector and IT institutions
25 Way Forward Accord high priority for creating awareness among stakeholders regarding potential benefits of Space Informatics. This would require better integration of water and IT institutions and individuals.
26 Way Forward Build capacity for training of young scientists and engineers in application of Space Informatics in water sector
27 Way Forward Formal network on Water Informatics to provide linkages among scientists and engineers involved in water sector
28 Way Forward Networking of data collecting institutions and establishment of decentralized databases by these institutions
