Case studies on P3DM used in the context of Participatory Land Use Planning

 

Ovalau Island (Fiji) Mt. Foata (Ethiopia) Hawassa (Ethiopia) Northern Ghana Njoro Watershed (KEN) Chivoko (Solomon Isl.) Ukhrul District (India) Rupununi (Guyana) Upper Mustang (Nepal) Mozonte (Honduras) West Garo Hills (India) SANREM (Ecuador) TG-HDP (Thailand) UNWMP (Thailand) Mahaweli (Sri Lanka) SFDP (Vietnam)

 The use of Participatory 3D Models in the context of PLUP has been initiated in Thailand the in the late 80's.

 

"The RFD Office of Watershed Conservation of Chiang Mai was responsible for management of the Doi Sam Mun Highland Development Project (SM-HDP) and was working in collaboration with the office of development of community forestry and the Chiang Mai University. The SM-HDP produced 3-dimensional models to enable the visualization of the topography of mountain zones undergoing reforestation activities. The models were stored at the project headquarters and used by project staff during meetings and planning sessions. Considering these as a useful learning tool the Faculty of Social Sciences of the Chiang Mai University conceived the idea of modifying them into a community-based research and planning device." (Tan-Kim-Yong, 1992).

Recorded uses include the following:

bullet

Locating, georeferencing and visualizing community knowledge on land use and vegetation cover, resource distribution, access, control and tenure;

bullet

Visualizing and analyzing the spatial distribution of social facilities;

bullet

Visualizing uphill soil erosion and downhill sedimentation pattern;

bullet

Monitoring jointly with the concerned communities changes in land use, vegetation cover, human settlement, infrastructure development and other features;

bullet

Inventorying and locating on the territory human settlements (households) and social infrastructure (schools, heath centers, government offices, community centers, meeting places, water supply points, roads, communication facilities, etc.).
