P3D Models with Communities in Samoa

• P3DM is a community engagement tool whichintegrates spatial data with local “traditionalknowledge” and used widely by SIDS e.g Samoafor spacial planning, climate change adaptation,Disaster Risk Reduction etc.

HISTORY OF P3DM IN SAMOA2012 

• ‐ Two Forestry Officers were trained with CTA 2013 

• 3 Models Laulii Falevao, Lake Lanotoo and Mt Salafai, Laulii Village with Primary School students

2014 • Apia Catchment; Vaitele – SIDS Venue ; Motootua with Students with disabilities.

• Small Island Development States Side Event / Site Visit• Gataivai & Taga

2015• Satoalepai (FPAM Project ) • Manono (ICCRITS Project)

Mt Salafai Scoping

Lake Lanoto’o Scoping

‐ Samoa 80% customary land 

‐ Lands & Titles Court‐ Sensitive issue not to map – village boundaries.

‐ Aim – sustainable management of natural resources

Presentation Notes
Split participants into three groups. Group I traces single contours from the base map on to carton board sheets. Group II cuts out the sheets. Each sheet represents a contour. Group III pastes contours on top of each other, making sure that their placement is correct.

PARTICIPATORY 3 DIMENSIONAL MODEL

P3DM  builds capacity, shares knowledge with communities at all levels, men, women & youth

Way of Sharing Traditional knowledge“this is a dirt road used by the farmers to access plantations and cattle farms.....”

“This is a sacred land for our village..”

Community Ownership

P3DM with communities in Samoa

Participatory Three Dimensional Modeling (P3DM)

• P3DM is a product of GIS data, it uses GIStechnology to build model from series of contourlines and important source of information toenter into GIS for participatory planning andimplementation e.g agriculture.

Conclusion / Recommendation• P3DM is an important tool that can provide a bridge/platform for local people, CSO/NGO to talk with and engage with Govt/Policy Maker

• P3DM has many applications as useful tool for generation of open data for thematic areas e.g. Climate change adaptation etc.

• Mutual agreement with communities on “open data”

• Build capacity at local, regional and international level share on lessons learnt and best practices

• Scale up P3DM
