Support the spread of “good practice” in generating, managing, analysing and communicating spatial information Arranging Project Logistics By: Mac Chapin Unit: M07U05 Introduction Project logistics cover: workshop venues (which are often in cities); travel by community members and technical staff; signing contracts for workshop space and accommodations for participants; procurement of equipment and materials; production and distribution of outputs. Sketching out logistical requirements The logistical requirements are based on the project proposal and budget. Close attention should be paid to: the trajectory of the project; the funds allotted for the various budget items. Travel Most communities are often located in remote areas with difficult access. Travel can be by bus, boat, airplane or a combination of these methods, and at times it can become very complex.

Workshops An appropriate space for the workshop needs to be found. Participants from distant locations must be provided with board and lodging. Research materials, supplies, equipment and services There is a constant need for: cartographic materials (e.g. aerial photographs, satellite images, base maps, etc.); paper, pencils, pens, white out, erasers, paint, cardboard, glue, tape, printer cartridges and a variety of other supplies. Equipment needs to be rented or bought. Printing the final maps The final maps need to be professionally designed and printed. In some countries and regions, no adequate facilities exist and it is necessary to find a printing firm abroad.
