1 How GIS can be used for improvement of literacy and CE programmes Training Workshop for Myanmar Literacy Resource Center (MLRC) ( Yangon, Myanmar, October 2000 ) Presented by U THEIN HTUT GEOCOMP MYANMAR
2 Introduction to merit and potential of Geographic Information System G I S
3 What is GIS? A method to visualize, manipulate, analyze, and display spatial data Smart Maps linking a database to the map
4 Data - Data - Data We all got data Location Data How Many What Kind Where Scale of Data Local to Global Data Presentation Words, Charts, Graphs, Tables, or Maps Exploring data using GIS turns data into information into knowledge
5 Geographic Information Systems A Definition of GIS GIS is a System of computer software, hardware and data, and personnel to help manipulate, analyze and present information that is tied to a spatial location spatial location usually a geographic location information visualization of analysis of data system linking software, hardware, data personnel a thinking explorer who is key to the power of GIS
6 Database Not Easy to Interpret
7 Visualization Worth a Thousand Words
8 Two Ways to Input and Visualize Data The World in GIS Raster Grid pixels a location and value Satellite images and aerial photos are already in this format Real world Vector Linear Points, lines & polygons Features (house, lake, etc.) Attributes size, type, length, etc.
9 Data For GIS Applications Digitized and Scanned Maps purchased, donated, free (Internet) created by user Data Bases Tables of data Data collection instrument / form Collected by data collector Field Sampling of Attributes
10 Lakes ( polygons ) Five Data Layers Alike Features Rivers ( lines ) Capitals ( points ) Roads ( lines ) States ( polygons )
11 Turning Data Into ( visual )Information Spatial Analysis not just a map
12 Asking A Question Interaction
13 Maps and Database are Interactive
14 Multiple Databases can be Linked and Related
15 Combining Various Display Methods
16 Some Ways GIS is Used Emergency Services Fire & Police Environmental Business Industry Environmental Monitoring & Modeling Business Site Location, Delivery Systems Industry Transportation, Communication, Mining, Pipelines, Healthcare Government Local, State, Federal, Military Education Research, Teaching Tool, Literacy program Administration Government Education Wherever Spatial Data Analysis is Needed
17 Population of major cities
18 Site Location and Client Distance
19 3D D Mine with Well Data
20 Oil Spill and Contamination
21 Clusters and Comparison of Data
22 Loma Linda Hospital Facilities
23 Merit of GIS GIS maps spatial objects as graphic features points, lines, polygons, symbol, text GIS provides graphic features to tabular data (attributes) Spatial coordinates, Symbology, Descriptive Information GIS links a worksheet (database) to map spatial information GIS provides tools for presenting spatial data Words, Charts, Graphs, Tables, or Maps
24 Some more merit of GIS GIS makes static maps dynamic move around by pan/zoom/jump change symbology : lines/colors/icons/fonts show multiple information sets turn information sets on/off GIS provides graphic and Boolean selection tools for making queries Selection by graphic features Selection by tabular features GIS provides variety of analytical tools for Classify data, Compare data Intersect / overlay / buffer graphics features
25 Some more merit of GIS GIS enhances our communication provide common spatial data format promote data sharing data consistency GIS expands our insights better understanding cross-cutting thinking better problem solving better decision making Thus Time and money saving
26 Benefit of using GIS for improvement of NFE programme NFE Database data collection instruments Form1 - Village level literacy facts and figures Form2 - Basic literacy classes Form3 Post-literacy classes Form4 Post-literacy Learners Form5 Facilitators Exploring above databases using GIS will turn data into indicators to assess the status of NFE programmes.
