Geographic Information System for Rotary Projects
Sharing project information sparks ideas, shaping the future and inspiring others…
The mapping, of our Rotary project locations and the provision of links, to allow access and the sharing of detailed information, is now available on the web.
The Rotary Club of Kippa-Ring North Lakes has access to an online mapping system which allows current and historical projects to be located on a map, with links to project reports and imagery.
The mapping system developed by Rotarian Patrick Burke, of Yellow Dot Geospatial, allows Rotary members and the public to see where Rotary projects have been conducted and gain access to more detailed information, if required. But more importantly, the system allows individual Rotary Clubs, from anywhere in the world to upload information about their projects to the database and show the location on a map. Other clubs, from far and wide, who are planning a similar project, or another type of project in a location close by, may benefit greatly by reviewing projects in the area.
The online map, which shows the projects that have already been uploaded to the database, is available at https://arcg.is/1T09Pb
This web based Geographic Information System (GIS) is introducing innovation and spatial solutions to future projects. It has the potential to transform the way we store, analyse and share Rotary project information with other clubs and organisations.
