Empowering Battambang, Siem Reap and Banteay Meanchey Staff with QGIS!

On March 21, 2024, the ISD hosted a dynamic two-day training program in Battambang. Fifteen dedicated staff members from various districts, municipalities, and the provincial hall (Battambang Municipality, Moung Ruessei District, Bavel District, Paoy Paet District, Siem Reap Municipality and Soutr Nikom District) came together to delve into the fundamentals of QGIS software.

🔍 What’s QGIS? It’s a powerful tool for household mapping and waste management. By mastering QGIS, our local heroes can:

🗺️ Map Waste Collection Routes: Visualize efficient paths for waste pickup.

📍 Locate Service Users: Pinpoint where services are needed most.

♻️ Optimize Waste Strategies: Tackle high-waste areas head-on.

But that’s not all! These maps serve as multi-purpose decision-making tools. For instance, they can identify areas for mobile One Window Service delivery.
