This book is a compilation of village level data collected
through participatory GIS techniques. Participatory exercises
were transferred to a GIS and overlayed with other spatial
information, including satellite imageries, to be used for local
level planning. The booklet showcases the power of participatory
GIS as a tool for involving communities in a process of
quantitative assessments of natural resources and their use and
management. The Village Resource Handbook Booklets and Manuals
