Use of Information Technology in Planning of Watershed Projects
Context
• Planning - crucial component of watershed development programme
• Technical and time consuming exercise• Have to be precise and cost efficient• Involves three stages:– Scientific Prioritization (SPSP)– Preliminary Project Report (PPR)– Detailed Project Report (DPR)
Incorporating historical development works in Watershed area
ICT tools utilized by GSWMAICT tools utilized by GSWMA
• GIS maps• Spatial & Non-spatial data
• Thematic Maps• GPS
State Strategic and Perspective Plan (SPSP)
DSS for Project Site Selection
PPR Preparation• Priority Map is utilized to select tentative project villages• Thirteen criteria to identify villages that mainly includes:
• Area not to be treated is already defined which is excluded from the villages:– IWMP Projects covered – Canal Command Area– Submergence – National Park and Sanctuary
• Finally villages are chosen and secondary data is utilized to prepare PPR On the basis of above mentioned criteria
• Ground truthing is done to validate the information
Poverty index % of small and marginal farmers Area under rain-fed agriculture
, % of SC/ ST population Ground water status Drinking water
Actual wages Moisture index/ DPAP/ DDP Block
Degraded land
Productivity potential of the land
Contiguity to another watershed
Cluster approach
IWMP-1 Jetpurpavi
Use of Thematic Maps
Socio-economic survey Bio-physical survey
Resource Mapping Focussed group discussion
Transect Walk Collection of historical data with GPS Coordinates
Participatory Net Planning (Use of GPS & GIS Maps) Finalization of Activities
DPR Preparation - Approval in Gram Sabha
GIS based Action Plan Map on Village
Chouraha
System Modules
System Modules contd…
Way forward
• Capturing of every financial transactions to be integrated into system
• Recognition of vendor as a stakeholder in the programme and their integration into the system
• Third party inspection of every activities to be performed under IWMP
• Use of IT platform in the form of dedicated software application for implementation of the programme
