  1. Innovative Information and Communication Technology(ICT) in City Sanitation Planning Presented by : Yashwant Soni & Dr. Megha Phansalkar Micro Technologies (India) Ltd.

  2. Contents • City Sanitation Plan and challenges • Various components of ICT and its usage in CSP preparation and its execution • Way forward..

  3. Need of City Sanitation Plan • Initiated under National Urban Sanitation Programme (NUSP) • Aims to provide/ strengthen Household level sanitation facilities and to carry safe disposal and treatment of solid and liquid waste • Active community participation in sanitation management process • As per MoUD, 40% cities in India needs immediate remedial measures in sanitation • Hence every ULB should have updated information on sanitation which will become the base for developing CSP.

  4. Our experience in CSP • Under NUSP, we have prepared CSPs for four cities in Madhya Pradesh, i.e. – Gwalior, Khajuraho, Raisen and Astha • Under CSP our aim was to assess present level of sanitation facilities and to suggest a best suitable technology for the sanitation management in the city • It will be supported by a comprehensive workable plan • Availability of data in small cities is a great challenge.

  5. Figure 1: Thematic flow diagram Methodology for using ICT • Preparation of Base Map on consultative process • Collection of updated information on various components of sanitation through handheld GPS • Preparation of thematic maps • Baseline survey for collection of non-spatial data • Integration of spatial and non-spatial data on GIS • Further data analysis and visualization.

  6. Components of ICT • SAMS (Sanitation Amenities and Management Systems) - To provide spatial representation of the existing situation of the sanitation facilities. • Mapper - For participatory planning within a ward. • Mobile Application - For capturing field based sanitation data with location and pictures. Ward map with sanitation Locations of waste bins and open dumps

  7. SAMS – Key Features • User friendly web application designed to assist activities related to CSP • Accessible for any body and anywhere with internet connection • Helps in query generation analysis and getting different reports • Spatial representation of relevant information which can be visualised by the user • Cross sectoral analysis • Data management and Report generation • Decision making tool for local bodies through smart data management • Main technology used for SAMS is Java.

  12. Mapper • User friendly desktop based GIS Mapping tool • Effective tool for community participation - Ward level information collection, storing, data updating, planning and decision making • Available in local regional language • Used for local area mapping through participatory planning • Simplifies data representation& updation– create and modify the data through layers • Useful tool for Planning and decision making at local level.

  14. Mapper as Field Manager to store non-spatial data

  15. Ward level analysis and decision making

  16. Mobile application • Mobile based application tool • Tool for monitoring of CSP execution • Useful in updation of current status of services from the field • Upgrade the real time data and useful for O&M in the sectors like, water supply, Sanitation and SWM • Secure and reliable data transfer • Enabled with GPRS and GSM technologies • Report generation as per requirement.

  21. Way Forward • Helps in effective data collection, management and decision making process • Need to disseminate such technology among the community • Need to develop a generic application of ICT tools which will help in data collection, management and assessment • It facilitates participatory planning and interaction between service provider and end users • Need to develop an integrated approach to get more involvement of stakeholders (service provider and user) for sustainable management of services.
