WP 2 – Update and results

1) Centralized web library including all the data (ecological, socio-economic and cultural-spiritual) and information collected for the project research for all four case study areas (metadata file added for each partner)

2) A document describing methodology and data requirements for the research of each work package for guiding the project partners in the data collection process (http://www.livediverse.eu/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/WPs_data_requirements_v23.pdf)

3) A report on each case area providing an analysis of the knowledge base available and information gaps

Planning and future tasks

• Contribution and support to WP5: development of a WEB-GIS interface to display the location and boundaries of four study areas by means of map services well-known and widely used (responsible: me)

• Support to WP8 for the scenarios (responsible: Faycal)

• WP2 almost completed and delivered

• Report activity (responsible: Faycal)

Future tasks

• Now the WEB-GIS allow to visualize for each study area an intuitive location map with few data:

• BASIN

• WATER BODIES AND RIVERS

• PROTECTED AREAS

• The WEB-GIS is directly accessible from Livediverse Website (http://www.livediverse.eu/map)

Kolhapur, India, 17-21 January 2011, Consortium Meeting 7

Future tasks

• The WEB-GIS will host additional spatial information (to be discussed) as:

• Ecological vulnerability

• Socio-economic vulnerability

• Cultural-spiritual vulnerability

• Others

• We need to precisely define which additional data to include.

• include some final maps of vulnerability indexes that will allow an easy and intuitive comparison of same data between different case study areas

• ……

but… data should be standardized for all four areas (WP5)
