Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have become an indispensable tool in modern Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) practice. As regulatory requirements become more stringent and projects increasingly complex, spatial analysis plays a critical role in identifying environmental sensitivities, assessing social impacts, and supporting evidence-based decision-making. This course equips participants with practical GIS skills tailored specifically to EIA processes, ensuring compliance with national regulations and international safeguard standards.
The training covers key themes including environmental and social safeguards, spatial risk assessment, governance and compliance mapping, cumulative impact analysis, stakeholder mapping, climate risk screening, and decision-support systems. Participants will learn how to integrate GIS into screening, scoping, baseline studies, impact prediction, mitigation planning, monitoring, and reporting in line with global frameworks.
