Welcome to PPgis.net, the Open Forum on Participatory Geographic Information Systems and Technologies. In building a community of practice around the concepts of Public Participation GIS (PPGIS)/Participatory-GIS (PGIS) this DGroup aims at stimulating exchange of information on progress made in bringing the power of geospatial information management systems at community level. A prime objective is to provide disadvantaged groups in society with added knowledge-based resources in interacting with higher-level institutions, negotiating territorial issues, participating in land/resource use planning, management and decision-making, and influencing policy-making.
The DGroup supports the vision of participatory geospatial information management linking different knowledge systems and improving multi-party communication on spatially defined issues. DGroup members are able to share information and lessons learned and post questions, resource documents and announcements which are relevant to the practice.
The forum is open to registered members and moderated by development practitioners and researchers with worldwide experience in a number of relevant disciplines.
