Participants

Next, ground survey is led by
village leaders using survey
equipment
Building the 3D
Model
The AD area is
identified in the
base map;
Contour lines of the
AD are traced from
an enlarged base
map;
Each layer is cut
representing a
specific contour
interval of the
ancestral domain.
Contour layers are glued together;
These are smoothened to gain better slope
accuracy.
Local landmarks
Trails, access routes
Extents of territories

Participatory GIS
Cost-effective;
– Technology is no
longer the domain of
“experts” and the
elite.
– Accommodates socio-

Survey regulations DO NOT APPLY to ancestral
land and domains, as these are not, and were
never part of public land.
