Pakistan Wetlands GIS Implementation Strategy
The overall goal of the PWGIS implementation strategy is to provide guidelines and framework for the development, implementation and management of Pakistan wetlands GIS. This strategy is developed after a thorough literature review of the available wetlands’ inventories. It was concluded that AWI provides comprehensive guidelines for recording information and specification of GIS in context of Pakistan. PWGIS database and inventory will closely follow the guidelines and procedures given in the ‘A Manual for an Inventory of Asian Wetlands’.
This document also examines the current state of Wetlands GIS in the country. There is dearth of information in digital format. GIS capacity of conservation organisations in the country was assessed through a SWOT analysis.
