Development of GIS data

• EOC identified gaps in the geographic information in the GMS
• In house development of new/improved datasets
• Coordination with Implementing Partners to foster develop of datasets (identification of gaps, capacity building)
• Developed so far in EOC:
  1. Seamless Digital Elevation and slope model for the GMS
  2. New river network based on DEM dataset
  3. GMS Projects in Key Development Sectors

Networking

• June 2006: CEP Data & Information Forum initiated to improve networking with IPs GIS units: First Issue (PDF: 1.23MB | 2 pages), Second Issue (PDF: 538KB | 2 pages)
• Informing GIS focal points about recent GIS-related events and new methods of potential importance to their work.
• Positive feedback from members, with more direct interaction between members developing.

Training

• November 2006: "Remote Sensing and GIS for beginners" held in Bangkok.
• 26 March – 6 April, 2007: "Biodiversity Modelling and Analysis using ESRI ArcGIS" held in Hanoi.

Dissemination for public use
There are 4 main EOC Geographic Tools available for public use. These tools are different in terms of ease of use, customization and speed depending on the purpose of use.
