HISTORY OF PPGIS
GIS workshop (power
and participation, 1996). Visualizing place-specific local knowledge and making it available for
public.

space itself.
• “Community that do not have maps become disadvantaged as rights and power are increasingly

offers new perspectives and better understanding of the
issues at hand.

CONSTRUCT A WEBGIS
• Information contained in the GIS should be easily accessible
and available to the wide public.
• Methodology:
1. Anticipate the type of mapping outputs (the ones that work best
in local context).

HARDCOPY GIS
• A traditional mapping method that is done by
putting markers on a map to identify spatial
attributes of research interest.
• Key considerations:
