Participación comunitaria para la mejora del plan de desarrollo local de la Unorig en las comunidades de Chilcanchi, Colatipo y Cochumbo: parte I: mapeo participativo

摘要

By applying a technique that creates a growing environmental awareness through maps that indicate the magnitude of changes that the paramo ecosystem has undergone, this project combined information required by the communities with a spatial analysis using technological tools. Through the use of GIS, GPS and the methodology of participative mapping, the community’s decision making abilities were strengthened, and were included as environmental considerations in the Local Development Plan. After incorporating the collectively obtained data into the ArcViewGIS 3.2, maps of the three communities were created that illustrate the condition of the ecosystem. The maps indicate that the amount of land used for agricultural purposes covers a significant extension of the total area of each community.
