Creating a GIS database for mapping climate change, vulnerability and adaptability
This project was to develop a Geographic Information System (GIS) for displaying, managing and aiding analysis of various demographic, spatial and socio-economic datasets based on the household survey carried out in Sakai sub location in three villages a namely Kathamba, Nthongoni and Linga in Makueni District in Kenya. The project contributes to the role of data and land information in land use decisionmaking by purposefully improving the type, quality and availability of land information and analysis. The key questions included: is new information being used, in what form, who is using it, and has the improved accuracy, specificity and availability resulted in
