商品描述

Participatory GIS (PGIS) is important in social science research because it provides a powerful tool for exploring and comprehending various socio-spatial phenomena. It makes it easier to investigate intricate spatial relationships, community dynamics, and the effects of policies and interventions on local populations. Researchers can also use it to map and analyze the spatial distribution of social concerns, resources, and assets within a community.

This Brief delves into the transformative potential of Participatory GIS (PGIS) in empowering communities and amplifying their voices through geospatial technologies. This book provides an in-depth discussion of PGIS, including approaches, data collection techniques, participatory mapping, critical discussions, the concept and thinking of geospatial citizenship, applications of participatory GIS in terms of socio-ecological concern, geographies and socio-spatial ecologies of a societal space, community cartography, challenges, and future directions. The book also offers real-world case studies that leverage PGIS technology to map the voices of ordinary people. Case studies include mapping natural resource management, modelling mangrove forest ecologies, indigenous technical knowledge of fish catching, social vulnerability to climate change in the coastal community, and identification of traditional coastal fishing sites.

The book emphasizes the necessity of community involvement in decision-making processes, as well as the awareness of their perspectives in formulating policies and programs, through the lens of PGIS. It highlights how geospatial technologies can be a strong tool for community empowerment, allowing individuals to actively shape their surroundings and build a sense of ownership over their shared spaces.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

參與式地理資訊系統（Participatory GIS, PGIS）在社會科學研究中非常重要，因為它提供了一個強大的工具來探索和理解各種社會空間現象。它使得調查複雜的空間關係、社區動態以及政策和干預對當地人口的影響變得更加容易。研究人員還可以利用它來繪製和分析社區內社會問題、資源和資產的空間分佈。

本書深入探討參與式地理資訊系統（PGIS）在賦權社區和通過地理空間技術放大其聲音方面的變革潛力。本書提供了對PGIS的深入討論，包括方法、數據收集技術、參與式繪圖、批判性討論、地理空間公民身份的概念與思考、參與式GIS在社會生態關注方面的應用、社會空間的地理與生態、社區地圖製作、挑戰及未來方向。本書還提供了利用PGIS技術繪製普通人聲音的實際案例研究。案例研究包括自然資源管理的繪圖、紅樹林生態模型、捕魚的原住民技術知識、沿海社區對氣候變遷的社會脆弱性，以及傳統沿海捕魚地點的識別。

本書強調社區參與決策過程的必要性，以及在制定政策和計劃時考慮他們觀點的重要性，透過PGIS的視角。它突顯了地理空間技術如何成為社區賦權的強大工具，使個體能夠積極塑造他們的環境，並對共享空間建立一種歸屬感。
